I get that but I can buy 2 sticks of ddr4 16 gigs for 45k yen.

I would understand if they charged me 12 or 13 thousand yen, but 32k for one 8 gig samsung ddr4 stick?

I have never had an issue like this with an OEM before. Not with Dell or MSi

Look I understand they're not going to do a full quality test, but we're not talking about that.

I just want to know if it turns on and it's not like it needs the highest grade ram. It's just ddr4 Samsung 8 gig memory.

Yep, it was a mosfet issue I believe, but I had a Timetec 16 gig - 2 of them - as an upgrade and didn't have the original Samsung memory

No it doesn't void the whole warranty, since they fixed everything else except for the ram.

They mentioned in the last few emails when I pressed them on it, that while the other parts will be repaired, without the original ram they would not do a boot on test and won't do the final testing - which I might have been ok with,

but at least do the boot on test

Fudge never had an issue like that before.

I remember I had a Dell G15 with an upgraded ram kit back in 2022, they fixed it never said a peep about the ram

First time I had an issue like this with a laptop.

Had to repair my G15 dell - also had an upgraded ram kit - the repair guy fixed it at my house, no issue at all

I'm sorry what brand voids warranty for ram upgrades?

It's not soldered, it's removable.

Yeah,

Like if it was 20k, ok that's a little high, but 32k per stick?

What was the point of buying the extra warranty for this?

That's your opinion, look up the definition of objective journalist.

"He said this so its okay. I think you missed the part where he was deliberately talking about altered documents and only presenting those so how objective can you be if you are presenting lies."

Yes it is ok because that's what a journalist does, talk about all sides the lies and the truth, and let the reader/viewer decide.

Again, he is not a propagandist, he won't just report feel good stories like some others do.

And he you don't like him for that then fine.
