>i'm not amazing with computers, hardware and specs
>have friend who is a fucking savant with them, helps suggest things to me, best friend in real life too
>my PC is old-ish, struggle to run many games I usually play (CS:GO, TF2 and the lot) at a stable 60 fps and can barely get 10 on new games (witcher, fallout 4)
>have to sacrifice having lowest settings on many games and put up with the still shoddy fps
>friend suggests RAM, I had 4 GB at the time, he thinks I should get 2x4GB RAM things so that I have 12GB
>okay cool, I can totally run games at a faster fps with that kind of RAM right?
>spend months getting cash together
>order the RAM online
>comes in two days
>install it after some struggle
>holy fuck that's a lotta RAM, I can play anything
>play Vermintide at max settings
>I get a nice, stable 7 fps
>flip shit
>friend realises what's happened
>"oh I thought you had lag spikes dude! RAM fixes lag spikes!"
>wait what
>he checks over my specs again
>my graphics card is absolute fucking trash apparently, RAM had nothing to do with it
>he didn't notice this for almost 12 months

tl;dr spend months thinking RAM will make my PC a monster while my savant friend doesn't notice a single problem with how outdated my computer is. Boring story but I need to vent my rage at autists like myself

your friend is an idiot or doesn't care, ram is almost never a good upgrade and you'll know when it is because you'll literally be utilising >80% of it which every version of windows has been able to show in the task manager

your friend could have prevent this upgrade graphic card and cpu and get an SSD

>>51510207
CPU is fine. 8GB RAM would have been fine. GPU need replacing. It wasn't a major fuck up. You'll live.

>>>/v/
this isn't a blog for you to rage about how you're too retarded to spend 10 minutes googling something

>>51510245
ram isn't even that expensive.
