I'm on a budget and trying to decide whether to invest in a laptop with DDR5 RAM or one that comes with 1TB of SSD storage. Which one should I prioritize?

Just a heads up, this seems like a laptop question in a PC building forum. But if you're really set on a laptop, DDR5 could give you a performance boost with a newer CPU. Make sure to check if you can expand either RAM or storage in the future.
Honestly, you should consider the CPU first. If you're looking at a laptop with DDR5, it usually means you're also getting a newer CPU and possibly a better GPU. Upgrading RAM or storage later is often possible, but the CPU is a harder component to change. So I'd lean towards the DDR5 option if you can, even if that means less initial storage.
It might be better to find a laptop that offers both upgrade options down the line. Prioritize the DDR5 RAM if possible, since you can always expand the storage later. What specific models are you currently considering?
