MSI GE40-i7 2PC Dragon Eyes

So I've settled on the MSI GE40-i7 2PC Dragon Eyes gaming laptop.
These are the specs:
i7-4702MQ (2.2GHz) Core
14 inch display (1920x1080 supported)
8GB ram
Geforce850M

I was wondering if a ram upgrade to 16gb will help me out in any way?
Thanks

 

Doubtful.

Faster. Well worth the 100$ upgrade for the better video card and cpu. The ram upgrade wouldn't help much unless you are doing high end application processing.

 

Thing's heavier than a xenon xbox 360 and costs an extra $500 in my country :/
I've got a decent computer at home, so I'll stick to my current option

thanks a lot though

 

Unnecessary upgrade. Don't bother, trust me. And yes, while the gt70 is superior in every way...its a huge monstrosity which isn't for everyone. The ge series is fantastic, I had a ge70 when they first introduced the ge lineup....it was a great laptop then...could only be better now.

 

Heh I placed my order last night. Thanks for the advice guys, I guess that I'll upgrade my ram only when I feel the need to
