Get that Samsung 4GB RAM stick you see in the recommended section - it'll LITERALLY double this laptop's performance due to how dual channel memory SIGNIFICANTLY improves BOTH Ryzen AND APU (Vega) performance. Just do it.Next off, this laptop is the bees knees in every possible way except for the trackpad BUT I have a solution to that as well! USE A MOUSE! :P Just kidding but not really.Double tap and drag = drag a window, make a selection.Single Tap = Left ClickTwo fingers single tap = right click3 or 4 finger swipe motion = completely customizable actions (minimize, volume, mute, snap window, ect. )Forget about clicking entirely - that's where this trackpad SUUUUCKS. It has the Microsoft Precision driver so it's not the driver (probably) but it DOES sometimes just think you're using one more finger than you are. >-> Probably my fault somehow. Thus far this change has made this trackpad more than usable - I'm a developer with a beefy workstation, 4K display, S i C K G a M i N G logitech wireless mouse and keyboard... buzzwords ? And thus far this laptop has been more than enough for "when I don't want to be at my desk" work. It's actually been so nice that now I Just use this laptop instead of my workstation when I'm not working (:AND OH MY GOD THE DISPLAY! DUDE!!!! I have a Spyder 5 and I didn't even bother. This blows everything I've ever owned out of the water - including my "professional grade IPS display" that I calibrated via said Spyder. If you're looking for a laptop, this is it.It can play any "last gen" game - so Rocket League, Skyrim, Minecraft - at high settings 60fps nbd and generally anything that's been ported to mobile (Fortnite) will run at 60fps at low settings. I will say this again: Your performance will be LITERALLY cut in half without that $14 stick of RAM. Just get the stupid thing. Don't be a dipstick. Don't believe me? Look up the benchmarks for this laptop. The CPU cores communicate over the RAM and so do the APU cores. Slowing down traffic by half also slows down *EVERYTHING* by half because it's going to be the bottleneck once performance otherwise maxes out - and with 2 cores it will max out quickly with games.That said, the desktop isn't dead. If you're looking to run games primarily - or you at least know that that's something you want to do - and those games aren't last gen - I'd strongly recommend building a PC. Using PCPartPicker or just posting a thread on Reddit you can have your PC parts purchased pretty quickly and building - even if you're illiterate - will take about 2 hours tops. The real time WITH EXPLANATIONS videos on YouTube take 20 minutes. It's easier than legos. You'll be fine. Hope this all helps!
