My laptop used to have just 4 GB of RAM. I can't buy a new laptop or a new graphics card. So I just bought an 8 GB DDR3, which is also known as memory stick or RAM stick. Now my Control Panel says I have 8 GB of RAM. I am expecting better overall performance (Internet, browsing, surfing, videos, games, etc.) but I don't notice much improvement. The frame rate in my games is averaging 5-21 frames/second, which is hardly better than what used to be 1-19 FPS. Start up, Internet browsing and surfing, etc. and generic use are also still slow.
I'm sure my hard drive isn't too full, it doesn't even have half of it used, and I regularly close / stop unnecessary processes in Task Manager. And I have my anti-virus on.
What is wrong with my laptop?
