1. Re: More RAM worth it?
1 person found this helpfulAbsolutely, more is better. Try to stuff 16 GB in there if you can swing it.
I don't know what your budget might be, but a big SSD would be helpful too. Something like a 512 GB OCZ Vertex 4 SSD costs under $600 now.

I'm not sure I'll even be able to get them to install more RAM, so I doubt they'll go for something like that. RAM is pretty much my only option right now, trying to decide whether it's even worth bringing up with them.

1 person found this helpfulTell them that your 64 bit system can't come into its own unless it's addressing more than 4 GB of RAM.
If you can't get them to buy it, 16 GB of 1333MHz SODIMMs is only about a hundred bucks. Do yourself a favor and buy them with your own money.
Here's a pair for only $67:

The idea of buying them myself has definitely crossed my mind. So you think it would be worth it to try to get more RAM?

That's great. Thanks for reporting back!
Not to push things further, but just in the time of this thread 512 GB SSDs have dropped to under $400...
