Need help choosing RAM for ASUS Series Desktop and Can we install at home easily?
I have ASUS Desktop PC K30AD_M31AD, M51AD, M32AD Series. It has 8 GB Ram and I need to upgrade. My photoshop and lightroom editing has slowed down so much. It's driving me nuts! I reached out to Best Buy - virtually - and was told what part I should get, but don't know if it is a good deal. Tried looking at Micro Center for similar, but seriously there are many options and specs. I'm lost with getting computer parts unless it's a mouse/keyboard.
BB recommended CORSAIR Vengeance 15 GB 2 pk, 1.6 GHz DDR3 DIMM Desktop. The cost seemed higher (almost $140) than I thought it would. What does MicroCenter have that is appropriate. I need something that is going to speed up the processing so I don't pull my hair out.
Also, my husband said he can install the new cards. Is it that easy? He is pretty handy, but I just don't want this computer messed up.
Thanks so much!
