What is it for?
RAM is your computer's workspace: the more it has, the more it can do at once without slowing down. If your laptop freezes when you open several Chrome tabs, Zoom and Word at the same time, it's almost always a lack of RAM.
This kit includes two 8GB modules that replace the ones your laptop shipped with (usually 4GB or 8GB total). It's the cheapest, highest-impact upgrade for 2011–2015 laptops, and it carries a lifetime warranty. It may ship as CT2K8G3S160BM or CT2KIT102464BF160B — same product.

PROSS technician's note
“This is the upgrade we install most on older laptops. With 16GB and an SSD, a 2013 laptop feels new again. But first confirm your device uses DDR3 — if it's from 2016 or newer it probably uses DDR4 and this kit will not fit.”
Pros
- Trusted brand, lifetime warranty
- Immediate, noticeable improvement
- 1.35V: works in DDR3 and DDR3L machines
Cons
- Only for DDR3 machines (≈2011–2015)
- Some laptops have soldered RAM that can't be replaced
- If the slowness comes from the hard drive, pair it with an SSD
