ThinkPad T430 - Performance Ram Upgrade

This week we have the final instalment in our ThinkPad T430 series.

In our previous videos the machine has had a new 1600x900 HD+ Screen upgrade, its had a lightning fast SSD installed, It got a gorgeous LED Backlit keyboard and then a CPU upgrade to the fastest i5 chip available.

To finish off we are replacing the single 4GB stick of ram with 2x Crucial Ballistix SPORT 4GB Sticks. These sticks will run in dual channel mode rather than the current sticks single channel giving more memory bandwidth. They also run at much faster timings 9-9-9-24 rather than 11-11-11-28 to improve latency.

Check out the video to see how to install the sticks and what performance gains, if any, are to be had.
