Better Options for Increasing RAM: Need Advice

[shryock]

---

i have a laptop. ASUS K43SJ-VX384
the stock RAM is 2GB DDR3. running on Win7 Ultimate 64bit
it clearly needs an upgrade, for optimal performance.

now my question is, which is better in terms of cost and performance:

A. Additional SODIMM 2GB DDR3 worth approximately p700.00. total of 4GB overall

or

B. 8GB MicroSD inside SD adapter inside the native memory card Reader. Using ReadyBoost, i can easily convert that 8GB to instant RAM. 8GB MicroSDs cost less than 700.

for info on what is ReadyBoost, see here.
ReadyBoost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ReadyBoost - Windows 7 features - Microsoft Windows

hoping to hear good input from you guys.
Thank You!

add more memory, chuva chuva ra nang readyboost. there's no subtiture for a physical memory jud hehehe...

[shryock]

hmmm.. you have a point bro.
ang akong belief sa ReadyBoost kay himuon niya "murag SSD" ang any device na compatible. it will utilize NAND Flash, which sa akong pagsabot kay same theory sa mga SSD?

still researching kung asa jud mas nindot buhaton..

for the mean time, post your inputs guys.
salamat..

physical memory bos = peace of mind

mao lage bro. better jud daw ang physical RAM compared to ReadyBoost in cases above 2GB..
kung 512Mb ra daw ang imo RAM, dadto ra makita ang difference sa performance..
according na sa akong mga nabasa..

but i think its also ok to do both. especially kung naa ra kay istambay na microSD. hehe

MicroSDs - hinay ang Data Transfer Rate and far from even approaching SSD speeds, not even the Professional (say 300x) SDs or TF cards.

No brainer bro. Get another ram module..
