Hello, I'm planning to upgrade both my RAM and storage for my Ryzen 7 2700x. I currently have an Acer Predator prebuilt with 16GB DDR4 memory at 2667MHz. For storage, my SSD is 256GB with a speed of 550+MB/s from SK Hynix, and my HDD is a 2TB Seagate model. I need to swap both drives for a new SSD with 2TB and faster memory, but there are many options. My budget is under $175 for both, so I really need recommendations!

Let's begin with the basics. What is your current RAM setup? Have you attempted to boost its speed? Simply adding more RAM won't significantly improve performance, so it might not be a good investment.

Regarding storage, could you clarify your SSD requirements? Are you looking for a combined 2TB drive or two separate 2TB drives? Which interface are you using—NVMe or SATA? With your budget, what outcome are you hoping for? We can explore possible solutions together.
