Yep, I agree as the CPU is now outdated. Just a few months remaining for my college to finish, once I get a job, I will buy what's best. Anyways, I didn't think about an SSD upgrade, I have a DVR RW maybe I can remove that and install an SSD. Thanks for your input, I will consider this before my purchase. Just a few tabs on any browser takes the usage as high as 3GB+ which means remaining RAM drops down to 900MB's or so and sometimes even lower. Noted. Thanks for your input.

My Laptop Specs :- CPU - 2.3GHz AMD A10-9600P processor RAM - 4GB DDR4 RAM HDD - 1TB 5400rpm Serial ATA hard drive GPU - AMD Radeon R7 M440 2GB Graphics OS - Windows 10 Pro I was planning on upgrading my RAM to a total of 8GB.

I think you better use memtest86+

Yes I think. The default windows 10 setting of 15 minutes and 30 minutes.

So in the last two years I was very excited and watched every LTT video about PC building. So I was on a mission to build the best PC I can make.

My main intention was gaming,programming and video editing. Sadly, I ran out of money(my dad ) before I could buy the GPU and SSD and they both remained '

I did some googling obviously and cleaned up the registry, ran Memtest, chkdsk and sfc. Cleaned up all the junk files and uninstalled + re-installed all the drivers.
