I recently acquired a used PC for approximately 120 USD. It included an 2200g Asrock A320M HDV R4, Corsair CX450, 1 TB HDD, and Crucial 8GB DDR4 RAM at 2400 MHz. I added an RX 480 graphics card. Can I add an NVMe SSD since the motherboard has an M2 slot advertised for PCIe Gen 3 support?
When you have just one memory stick, consider adding a second as soon as possible... using dual channels can boost performance by up to 10-15%. Adding extra memory also enhances speed further. Ryzen chips perform best with higher-speed RAM such as 3000 MHz or 3200 MHz. Switching from 2400 to 3000 MHz might improve most applications and games by 2-5%. Based on your budget, investing in two 3000-3200 MHz sticks could be worthwhile, while selling the single 8 GB 2400 MHz unit might offer a good return.
