Swift Edge 16 - Maximum RAM 16G ?

Hi there,

I'm new here and just registered to ask if the all-new Swift Edge 16 laptop can be upgraded to 32G RAM or all of them are fixed at 16G ?

I'm before buying, for me it's crucial to have good Photoshop performance and some GPU power for older titles which are all fulfilled by the Ryzen 6800U.

However, when I think about working e.g. development/programming and editing large RAW files in Photoshop using that nice OLED display - all this from a hotel room while I'm on the move - it would be crucial for me to have 32G RAM overall, instead of 16G.

What I see on the market right now: there are no 6800U laptops at all WITHOUT dedicated GPU, WITH 32G RAM. All are 16G versions and cannot be extended, no extra RAM slot and if RAM-s are factory soldered, no 32G options. :(

I only need more RAM, I don't need the extra price of a dedicated GPU, the 6800U's RDNA2 is just perfect for everything I would use such a laptop.

Any hope for a 32G RAM version in the future leaving everything else as is ?

Thank you.

Hi,

If you are inquiring about SFA16-41 model, there are no slots for upgrade because it comes with 16GB LPDDR5 onboard memory only, there are few newer model coming out, probably around June this year, you might be lucky enough to find one with 32GB.

No problem, yes, wait another 2 months and see whether there will be any models you prefer with 32GB🤞
