So successfully swapped out the RAM.
I got a 4k 2133 ddr4 by g-skill for $80 (inc tax)
took it apart and plopped it in. Has made a difference.
But still slower than my 7 machine.
Could be all the bloatware.
Weird thing thought, the BIOS reported DDR4 2133meg, BUT another DELL built in diagnostics program reported 2400meg, when pulling it apart it was 2400, so I've got a mixed 2400/2133. Which I was worried about, I guess it'll clock to the slower 2133.
Also the OEM chip was ALLDATA ? or something like that, which surprised me.
Anyway, txs for the replies
Oh the OEM upgrade from the factory was $100, so saved a little something something
