Key notes
If you are into gaming, you already know that RAM is one of the most significant components in a gaming PC. It makes a big difference in how fast your computer operates and responds when it comes to gaming.
It facilitates faster input and writing, allowing you to focus on the game rather than waiting for things to load or quit freezing up, thus ensuring a better gaming experience.
Acer Predator Helios 300 is a gaming laptop, and it has a lot of potential. It can support up to 2x 16GB DDR4 memory modules, which adds up to 32GB RAM.
If you think your Helios 300 is running slow because of games like Overwatch or Fortnite, you can upgrade your RAM by opening up the back of your computer and switching out one of the current RAM sticks with a new and upgraded one.
How can I upgrade the RAM on my Acer Predator Helios 300?
1. Remove back panel
2. Locate RAM slots
