people need to understand that now days you need more than 4 GB of RAM. you complain about speed yet, you buy slow things. Get in the know man. clock speeds, bandwidth, and power consumption are just a few terms you need to learn and understand. With this laptop, I installed a Kingston 120 GB  SSD (Solid State Drive) that really sped up the load time after initial boot up with windows 10 Home.  the 4 GB of RAM that this comes with is definitely not enough. i am ordering a G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800). i will edit this post after i try it out.Edit. Worked great thumbs up.
