Hi guys,
Recently bought a lenovo G50-70 laptop with 500 Gb HDD and 4 GB ram. Laptop is running on windows 8.1 64 bit. I don't game on the laptop and i usually don't run any heavy applications. My usage from this laptop is mainly browsing and watching movies, youtube etc. Most of the time i have at-least 2 browsers open with 30+ tabs. I may also need to edit pictures using Photoshop occasionally. I have not used a SSD before so not to sure how much performance boost it would bring to the table. my options are.
1) Upgrade Ram to 8 Gb dual channel.My desktop runs on 8 GB RAM and it does everything i throw at it including hours of Bf3 gaming.
2) SSD: I have read on many forums that SSD makes a lot of difference especially boot times. I'm thinking about buying samsung Evo 120 GB which is selling around 4.5k on amazon. with citibank offers and vouchers i can pick one of these for around 3.5k.
I know that the ideal scenario would be to add both RAM and SSD but i don't want to spend that much money on the upgrade right now. I may consider adding it in the future but for the time being i would like to get the upgrade done in 3.5 to 4k. I would really appreciate if someone can guide me here.
Regards
