RAM etc

[kk.]

Ok i promise this'll be my final thread! at least for a few days i hope..

Right, for a laptop, would 3GB RAM be enough? or is it worth spending £40 more upgrading to 4GB? It is tempting to get the light up keyboard but i think itd be a waste of £30 tbh lol

I think my final laptop specs will be:

i3 Processor
500GB HDD
3/4GB RAM
15" screen WLED

sound alright?

and! Rocketbird Design

I would get the light up keyboard instead of 4gb ram, just to make it even more amazing with the rocket bird

In my opinion 3GB would be enough RAM, but it depends what you are using it for... If you are going to be using it for games which need installing then i'd recommend more.

For me getting a light up keyboard would be a waste of money - a keyboard is a keyboard... so what if it lights up - but its up to you really.

Overall, the spec looks good to me.

if you plan of using it in darkness then get light up keyboard if not then get ram

I'd be using it for word processing, internet and multimedia like watching tv online and stuff. I might have photoshop installed as well.

gaming would be done via a console so its aight.

my theory is that i could always just turn the light on im just not sure its worth the extra :S

Forget the 4GB, 3GB will be fine for your needs then

i was gonna say, on my desktop computer i have lesser specs and i do all those things and more!!

3GB is plenty for most. 4GB+ would be if you're going to be using the laptop for some serious gaming

3GB would do just fine for most things.

Just remember you'll need a 64-bit OS if you go for 4GB (else it won't see it all).
