When looking to squeeze better performance out of an existing laptop, don't forget to consider the RAM--commonly referred to as 'memory'. If your system capacity allows, adding an extra memory module can often be an easy and cost-efficient way to breathe new life into your system. For best results, install additional memory that matches both the speed and size of the existing module. Matched pairs provide the most efficient speed boost, and the entire available memory will only operate as fast as the speed of the slowest component module.

Your question is not very clear but do you mean "what determines the speed of a laptop?" Well the speed of a laptop varies just like a desktop depending mostly on the processor and how much RAM (random access memory) it has.
If they both have the same Intel then I think that you should get the second laptop, th Intel with a laptop can effect the speed greatly, the more the cores in a laptop the better and faster your laptop will be.
yes RAM helps speed up everything that's on a computer i upgraded from 1 gig to 4 gig RAM on my laptop and i noticed an immediate difference in the entire performance of it
You should have at least 3 to 4gb but in most cases the mobile graphic cards / chipset graphics are limiting the gaming capabilities of a laptop much more than the ram.
The RAM that is used for a laptop is not the same as the RAM that you would use in a desktop PC. The RAM that is used for a PC is much too big to be used in a laptop, so a laptop has to use a much smaller RAM card which is called SD-RAM.
The laptop in question comes with 4GB of RAM.
many factors affect the price of a laptop computer: the specifications, the weight and the size of the screen. Specifications include CPU speed and number of cores, amount and speed of RAM and amount of storage space. so it is depend on the requirement.
The cost of 8GB of RAM depends on the speed of the ram, the vintage of the computer it will go into and of course whether it is for a laptop or desktop computer.
Intel Core 2, speeds greater than 2.0ghz,and as much RAM as you can afford.
Speed of laptop depends upon both Ram and Processor speed.The CPU processes (performs instructions on things, such as adding) stuff in memory. RAM is just part of the memory pyramid (see below). So when you are processing lots of data, that data ( or maybe large portions of it) will likely get loaded into RAM so it is ready for the cpu, this is to speed things up because RAM is faster to access than storage devices. So CPU usage and RAM can often correlate, but don't have to.
