Hello! For your MSI GL62M 7REX, the specs say at least 8GB 2400MHz. You’re wondering if you can upgrade to higher speeds like 3200MHz or more, and whether you should limit yourself to 2400MHz. If you add 32GB of 3200MHz RAM, it should work fine—just ensure your motherboard supports that frequency. Since you don’t have the board specs handy, checking the manufacturer’s website or forums can help confirm compatibility before purchasing.

It should generally operate smoothly at 2400 MHz regardless of the RAM you choose. Investing more in faster RAM isn't necessary.

The processor speed is around 2666MHz, which should give you a good boost.

The question asks about performance differences between using the existing Intel Core i7 7700HQ and purchasing a completely new system. It seeks clarification on whether switching to a newer model would improve results.

Typically, performance is constrained by the motherboard. Laptop CPUs and motherboards don’t allow overclocking, and RAM exceeding 2400 or 2666 is regarded as overclocking.

The processor is officially rated for 2400 MHz. Speeds above this are regarded as overclocking and depend on whether your laptop's BIOS permits them. Allowing it doesn't ensure functionality.

You can find overclocking settings in the BIOS under advanced settings or performance options.

You'll need to search a bit, but there should be a part for memory or timing details—possibly labeled XMP. It depends on your BIOS. If you don't find anything similar, it's likely you can't overclock the RAM and will be limited to 2400.

I confirmed XMP is active at 2800MHz. That means the highest RAM frequency I could upgrade to is around that range. I think sticking to 2400MHz makes more sense. Thanks to everyone who responded—I really value your assistance!
