Hey guys, a little OT but this is the most active thread on PCs. I have a desktop rigged for 3D modelling but I'm looking into buying a new work laptop. I'll mostly be using Word, Powerpoint, Excel and Outlook. Maybe a little Photoshop.
I've zeroed in on this:
www.newlaptopspecs.com/lenovo-ideapad-100-80mj001bus-review-entry-budget-laptop/
Cheap and surprisingly lightweight. However I'd like to upgrade the RAM to 4GB. Problem is, the Lenovo store I'm getting it from doesn't sell parts. It's also a new model so there aren't any extensive reviews on it yet. The salesman advised me to look for a low voltage sodimm 1600mhz ram. And I found this:
www.amazon.co.uk/G-Skill-1333MHz-SO-DIMM-Low-voltage-single/dp/B00IALDZQM
(There's also a Kingston with the same specs)
Do you guys know if this RAM is compatible with the laptop? Any advice?
P.S. I was also looking at this 2-in-1 from Asus, I kinda liked it because of its longer battery life and portability.

Can't help you with your question but found a good deal if you're in the market.

Acer is becoming a respected brand. I've owned 3 of their PCs and have had no problems with them.
Great price for what you get.
