I recently purchased a new laptop and want to boost its performance by adding more RAM. The current setup has two 4GB modules (2x4GB) at 2666mHz soldered onto the motherboard. With two available slots, should I install two additional 4GB sticks or one larger 8GB stick? Let me know! Your specs: i5-8300H GTX 1650 with 8GB 2666mHz DDR4. Thanks ahead!

Sorry, I think you already covered that point. If there are two empty slots, consider using a 2x4 kit. Three sticks would run through one channel, affecting performance.
