It's a bit accurate, but your current memory capacity is 1600 MHz. The dual-channeling reduces the speed, which explains why CPU-Z shows 800 MHz and Task Manager displays double that. I'm actually interested in understanding why this occurs.

The two RAM modules are DDR, which stands for Dual Rank. That means a 800x2 configuration would result in 1600 MHz, but this speed remains the same regardless of combining both sticks.

I understand now. You'll just need to upgrade one stick, which will save you money. Appreciate the details.

Review your manufacturer's specifications on system memory limits. For example, some laptops you're considering can handle up to 12 GB, while others like yours support 16 GB. Make sure you check this to avoid unnecessary expenses.
