Hello, I found a laptop on ebay.
My question is whether this model from Samsung is good.
I mean the values look good, but the laptop is from Samsung.
Is there any hack or does age matter?
Too little ram
As you write yourself, the notebook is very old. The battery should be through. The display also suffered (which would annoy me personally).
Otherwise it is enough for office and internet, not for more.
Yes, the old notebooks usually last longer than the new ones.
However, 110 euro is a bit high. 80-90 euro is acceptable.
You didn't find a laptop on ebay but on ebay classifieds. These are different platforms.
The laptop is far from good. Much too little Ram, also old DDR3 Ram, old Cpu. That is at most enough for a bit of office applications.
Apart from that, don't have it sent. Only buy if you can personally exchange it for money and try it out beforehand.
Replacing ram would be a solution
Would swapping ram be a solution?
Why swap RAM? 6GB is more than sufficient for this age group. More RAM doesn't necessarily mean more performance.
An SSD is very helpful.
No, DDR3 must remain DDR3. In addition, you can't expand Ram as you like. The mainboard must also support this. The old processor doesn't get any better with it. And the graphics unit is bad too.
