So turns out my G60JX is actually getting outdated and hitting the 4 year mark, but I don't really want to buy a new laptop. Turns out I only have 4gb of ram unlike the 6gb I thought I had! But reading online it sounds like I can only run 8gb of ram max with the i5 M430? Should I attempt the 16gb upgrade? It will only use 8gb of it though, or should i just go out and buy a new tower or laptop? I love this thing to death, but that was disheartening! And I need more ram to model on my 51inch or it really begins to bog down, no real work-around.
If the path is a new pc, should I go balls out with a top of the line Asus or go with a lower level pc and upgrade it? And should I go desktop or laptop. I definately wouldn't get rid of the G60 as it still plays every game on very high graphics
My first EVER BSOD since windows 3.0 or 4.0!

Sounds like G skill is the way to go? There 16gb kit is $125 which isn't too bad. Turns out the G60JX uses the same ram sticks as Apple lol.
