How about upping your RAM to 16gb.....8gb x2...... or even 32gb...16gb x2


While you're here.... add in a NVME SSD (4x pci-e lanes) as well.... speed up your drive by 6x or more....512GB or 1TB (best price/GB now)...

Or Adata:
8GB x 2 for around RM200-250
16GB x 2 for around RM460


Though a 4gb @2666MHz...is only RM65 (on shopee)
