    Hello, I have an (2018) Aspire5 A517-51G-52AZ, IntelCore i5 8thGen and it's really slowing down. I use it for gaming and for programming work.
    Since I'm on a budget, I want to make sure whether what I'm buying is compatible and worth it.
    The motherboard model is a KBL Dragonite_KL V1.15 with a single slot upgradable ram(max: 20GB).

    Can anyone please advise on the following upgrade:
    Current ram: 4GB 2400 upgrade  to  16GB 2666 No-ECC SODIMM
    Current SSD: EMPTY slot  to  M.2 PCIe NVMe 4.0 (2280)

    Please feel free to give any recommendation/advice on the device or on which SSD size I should opt for(256 to 1TB)
