Nitro5 AN515-52-Query reg: upgrade of RAM and SSD/HDD - planning to buy a 256 (but also 512) SSD?
Tinkerer
Hi, I would like to upgrade the RAM and SSD/HDD of my Acer Nitro 5 AN515-52-588Y but I don't know which one to choose since the model is a bit old. For now, I was only planning to buy a 256 (but also 512) SSD, but I don't know which one to choose.
(My model is the one with the 1050ti and the i5-8300h).
[Edited the thread to add model name and issue detail to the title]

Hi,
I would suggest you go for a 512GB M.2 Gen 3 SSD like Samsung 970 Evo or Evo Plus because 256GB is too small.
As for the memory, get Crucial memory modules and upgrade.

Ok thanks, I have another question I would also like to change the fans but I can't find a cp & gpu kit and I was wondering, since they seem the same at first glance, is it enough to buy a pair of fans branded "cpu" and "gpu" or not? I've found this one on aliexpress and the seller says there are compatible (third photo)
