At these RAM prices, and for the target market that the Ryzen G APUs are targetting, future upgrade to 16GB is not a priority.
But if you think that upgrading to 16GB down the road in an A320 board is a major selling point, and 2x4GB won't cut it, then check the Gigabyte GA-A320MA-m.2... that board has 4 RAM slots, and its price is right in line with other A320 boards.
But i never said anything about going to 16GB with a 2200G, but yes there a options, any board with 4 slots is a excellent choice if you go 2x4GB, even if it cost a little bit more.
Most of potential users of 2200G don't need more RAM, idea of 16GB for budget PC is quite ridiculous honestly.
Btw, you've already made 162 posts (11 percent overall) in this thread - for me it's clearly a sign of trolling.
I never said about 16GB on a 2200G, if someone wants to do it it is their choice, there are others, like going to a mb w/4 slots for just a little more or not using the IGP to play.
If you absolutely must do 2x4GB on 2 slots thats fine, its a budget build after all, but if you can you should avoid it.
11% and i was mostly right for everything i said, ergo, not expecting 2400G to be better than a GT1030 based on AMD slides, or expecting SMT to be the top selling reason of the 2400G because IGP cant really take off because its limited by bandwidth. The rest were replies to people to who attacked me for saying that. The top argument was petty much "you are a Intel fanboy" in an direct or indirect way. But im the one trolling here... yeah sure.
Do you buy a PC looking at the numbers on the box or the performance you get from it? There is nothing wrong with 2x4GB "killing upgrade ability" if you're unlikely to upgrade meaningfully in the system's lifetime. My facts are perfectly fine in the fact that there is a setting in memory usage between 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB for its minimum allocation, then it can go up to 2GB. The difference between these 3 settings is essentially Margin of Error.
Since you keep saying that the difference between 6GB and 8GB in games is obviously a big deal at this level of performance, you have facts to back this up, correct? A link? Benchmark? I'd accept a 2200G or 2400G with a 1030 and without a 1030. Or is this all just guessing?
No, your facts are not right, because if you set the memory to 512MB in the bios the IGP still uses UP TO 2GB while gaming!!!! last time im going to say this to you, thats why the results are almost the same.
As for the rest im just saying 6GB of usable ram < 8GB of usable ram, what is a completely valid point, wharever you like it or not, and 4GB is not enoght for some games today. So i would expect if you have 8GB you will want to upgrade it later on, if you have 2x4GB and 2 slots is a problem, another 100% valid point. The rest is you trying to find something to complain about what i said.
