With the moneys you saved, you can even try grabbing an SSHD or SSD Notebookcheck ranking is based on a variety of factors,sometimes they mess up If you can call the place and confirm before you order, that would be best.Įven with DDR3, the 8670 is 64bit DDR3 while the 7670m would be 128bit DDR3įor most laptops, you unscrew 1-2 screws, take off a pnel, snap ram in then close up panel. I an expecting the HP Pavilion to have 1 4gb ina slot and the other slot empty. You'll want 2x4gb to enable dual channel. Just a question, will a single 8gb RAM unit perform better than two 4GB RAMs, or will it be pretty much the same?Īlso, is installing extra RAM particularly difficult (not much experience fiddling with hardware), and do you really think I'll need it? The specs for the laptop class (it is a HP Pavilion g6-2331tx) say that it has "2 customer-accessible/upgradable SODIMM slots", so I assume that means it can be expanded. Thanks for the quick reply, I just wasn't sure whether the having an extra gig of memory for the 8670m would outplay the 7670m which is supposedly better (still not sure on that, because many comparisons say the 7670 has DDR5 and that is a major reason for it being faster, whereas my laptop specifically says 7670 DDR3).Įxtra confusion arose when despite it being ranked higher on, the 8670 performed worse in almost every game benchmark.īut if you think the 7670 will perform better even with less memory, thats better for me seeing as that is the cheaper laptop. As with most laptops, serious gaming should be done on AC power. Http //parts/memory/#qq=1&t=8,9&s=301066,301333,301600&z=4096&sort=a8īest to see if the 7670m laptop has an extra DIMM slot of it before deciding.īear in mind, all things being equal, the 7670m will suck a bit more power than the 8670m. I would say they would perform roughly the same with the 8670m being more battery friendly.Ī further check on notebookcheck shows the 7570m performing better than the 8670m, seems the 8670m is severely bandwidth starvedįinal advice is to go for the 7670m and add in extra 4gb of ram. The 7670m has a 128bit memoery interface compared to the 8670m (64bit) but the 8670m has more compute power (GCN cores coampred to VLIW5). You'll really want 8GB of ram, how much it would it cost to add 4GB of ram to the 7670m?
