💻 Best RAM for Laptop Upgrade
A laptop upgrade is constrained by what the machine will actually accept — SO-DIMM capacity within the chassis's slot count, at a speed the memory controller supports — not by how far a kit can be overclocked. We weight $/GB and capacity together as the practical ceiling most upgraders actually care about (how much more usable memory lands per dollar), with speed and latency as tie-breakers, since most laptop platforms see only a marginal, controller-capped benefit from going faster.
