I've just upgraded my laptop RAM size from 8GB to 16GB and so expected my gaming performance to be better but what happened that there is literally no difference, fps is the same in all games and same for system performance.

Could anyone assist me with that please.

    According to your laptop processor specifications, 2133MHz is the max RAM speed.

    Thank you for the screenshots. Your RAM is running on the designed frequency on both sticks.

    You can do the memory test to confirm that memory is OK.

    Open the Start Menu, type Windows Memory Diagnostic and press enter. Select "Restart now" and the system will restart and test your RAM for errors.

    Hi YassenHossam,

    I'm Rodrigo and I'll help you.

    More RAM alone will not always give you more FPS. Depending on what was limiting your gaming performance, it will not give you any performance gain.

    Please, download CPU-Z in the link below and send a screenshot of the Memory tab and SPD tab on each slot available.
