Thanks. I got a second hand G3 3779 (17 inch) with corei7-8750H, 16GB and GTX1060 for $300 and I am very happy with it. I will upgrade the SSD to 1TB and I will replace 2TB HDD with another SSD.
It did, games run much smoother and don't stutter as much, having a lot of chrome tabs open isn't laggy anymore, and you can have several background apps open
When I put the two Corsair sticks in the laptop wouldn’t turn on. Took the original out and it turned on. The Corsair 2x8gb worked but the 32gb (2x16) wouldn’t turn on
Upgrade description and thumbnail of the video mentioning ssd 4.0 install.. beacuse i didnt seen anyone making 4.0 upgrade.. Also you mentioned puting ssd into wífi card slot.. that could be a video
I have same lp came 128ssd and 1tb hhd.. i wana ask how was the 4.0 speed.. and what ia the maximum size we can put? Like 1 or 2 tb? Also what is the maximum we can go for 2.5 inch SSD like 2tb ?
If i change 16gb of ram to 3If i change 16gb of ram to 32gb will it upgrade efficiently performance in degree it will be visible? I use my laptop to programming so very often i have many app launched. IDE, DB, some other tools apps and web browser with several tabs open can consume 12GB just like that.
I added 32GB of DDR4 ram from corsair, a 1TB NVME SSD for boot drive and for games, and then I added an additional 1TB SATA SSD for more games since at the time warzone was taking up about half of 1tb
You could search for a replacement screen that has 120/144hz, I think the higher end one with a core i7 had a higher refresh rate screen with the same dimensions you could look into buying! I'll do some research as well and make a video in the future on that if I can!
hi, my G3's HDD is starting to fail, it became very slow and when I took it to the technician he told me that my HDD would soon die and I decided to save money to upgrade my laptop, so I bought 8GB of RAM, an NvMe 500GB and a Toshiba L200 1TB HDD. The NVMe I plan to use for the operating system, while the HDD for storage. Thanks to you, I already know how to place the components; Since my old HDD still works, I want to copy all the files to the new HDD, but for that I have to first place the NvMe as disk C, and that's what I can't do, I ran out of savings to send it to a technician. ..any help, what steps should I follow?
Do you have access to an external storage drive? You could attach and move the files to the external drive and then swap all new components in and then move the files back
@@sanwalmuzammal a 2tb will definitely work, a 4tb would even work if you needed more space than 2tb, but the 2tb will most definitely work with this laptop
Beat video ever omg been looking for this for ever

Did upgrading the ram actually make an improvement for the cost? awesome video

cool video man, was definitely thinking about increasing storage 👍
Would definitely recommend it. Even if just adding a 2.5 SATA drive, the extra storage is nice for movies and files
Thanks for this!!

Hello. Can you tell what read and write speed this SSDSSD Sabrent Rocket nvme 4.0 has in PCIe 3.0?
I've been getting 3,000-3500MB/s consistently. If it were in a 4.0 slot the speeds would be faster
@@DionlWilliams Thank you very much for taking the time to respond.
Do you have a link or description of all the components that you changed?

Are you able to upgrade the processor from a i5 to like a i7 if you have the correct chip with paste needed?
No, because the CPU is soldered to the motherboard, it isn't possible
what Mhz did you used for this one?
I want to put m.2 1tb samsung evo plus and 2tb 2.5 inch ssd
Watch out for faulty hinges, they will rip the screws out of the monitor plastic. Dell will walk away
What speed of RAM did you install?
The RAM is 2665MHz, that’s unfortunately the fastest that this motherboard supports
which RAM is better for this laptop?
2400mhz ddr4 laptop memory works with this laptop, you could use any brand of your preference
Does it will take 2TB 970 evo plus?
Yep! A 2tb 970 Evo plus will work in this laptop
@@DionlWilliams thank you for your reply.. dell spec sheet says upto 1tb only so im confuse if go ahead and buy 2tb or not
Im not in US and its hard for me to buy so i just want 100% sure before buy 2tb nvme 970 evo plus
