Well, it’s a Lenovo Ideapad S145 with an Intel Celeron and 4GB of RAM. I’m writing this on it. I want it to be slightly faster at browsing the internet. I use Chrome, I know that’s awful xD

    As much as people would like to give advice…

    • Rule 5 - This is not a support community

    With that said, it would help to know what OS you’re running or planning to run, and post your question under a relevant operating system community.

        You can’t make a thread like this relevant to everyone, each operating system works differently.

        Windows 10, you gotta cut out the bloatware and telemetry, and still probably install more RAM anyways.

        Linux, you take advantage of fstab to arrange a tmpfs or ramfs filesystem for temporary files, internet cache, and even system log files if you really wanna cut down on unnecessary storage write cycles.

        There’s no universal one size fits all answer here, it all depends on the operating system, especially these days…
