Hello,

 

What brand of ram do I use and how do I install ram into this laptop. I have a new acer that max at 16 gb ram. Preinstalled it has 8 gb. I have researched and read that it has 2 slots. So each one could fit in 8b. I would of thought that acer used one slot with 8gb and left the second one empty. But I keep reading that they are both filled with 4gb ram. Is that true? So instead of buying one 8gb ram, I have to buy two now? Why does the task manager show 4 slots in the memory section if it only has two? So many questions, but sorry I have been out of the technical world for awhile and trying to catch up now. 

 

I found this video on installing the RAM but WOW it looks difficult lol and plus it's not in english. so I was only able to kinda understand by demostration. Does anyone have any other videos that might make it easier or should I find a pro?
