Question Ram problem

[Emilej]

Hey guys

Recently i upgraded my laptop with 16 gb of ram the machine allready got 8 gb soldered to the board they are both running in dual channel according from cpu z

My problem now is when i 'am gaming the fps are really bad is this because of the 16 gb module not working well with the 8g soldered ram ?

(sorry for bad english)

When my ram usage goes over 8 gb thats when the problems begin.

500 GB SSD will make that scream - I got mushkin
or even a 5400 i5. I didn't need to reboot my 17 for 20 some days
but the battery is horrible - not half my phone - the tab has the best power but I cant even get microsoft word running on it
