I'm looking for 64 GB (4x16) DDR4-2400 SODIMM. It is going to run me like 350 bucks... For used modules.
Absolutely ridiculous.
I'd go for 2x32 if you can. I've heard of people having more issues with 4 dimms than 2 when you get above 32GB
Computer is an old Lenovo P71. Has 4 slots with a maximum of 16GB per slot.
Ahhh, I got ya. Well just be prepared to run it at 2133mt/s, if you have any instability.
It weighs like 9lbs. Literally the most stable and planted laptop I've had since 3rd grade.
I should see what Ii have laying around.
