    Thanks for your response.I am not sure as to why you see 32 GB memory. Here is what I found out for your model.

    @PankajS Hi there mate. To be sure how many Ram slot you really have. Just open your RAM bay or your laptop itself where you can access your RAM slots. If you are confused why both software don't show actualities, maybe because of the Memory channels your processor supports and this is also caused because your Motherboard supports up to 4 RAM slots. maybe 4 Removable RAM or 2 Removable+2 Integrated/Soldered or 4 Integrated/Soldered RAM configuration in it.

    SF315-52G has two removable RAM slots which can take up to 2 x 16GB 2.4GHz or greater modules = 32GB max. Go to crucial dot com for DDR4 specifications. Yes the bottom case must be removed to access the slots. Jack E/NJ

    If there are no seal tapes, you can probably open to laptop to upgrade the RAM. Jack E/NJ

    There is seal on back, cannot void warranty, as i extended warranty for 2 more years

    Then you have 2 choices if you want to add RAM. Have an ACER certified shop do it for you. Or risk voiding the warranty and do it yourself. Jack E/NJ

    I have upgraded RAM to 32GB on my Acer Swift 3 today. Model: SF315-52G-54RN
    So there are two RAM Slots, Removed the Kingston 8GB RAM and Installed two of these: 

    Crucial CT16G4SFD8266 16GB Single DDR4 2666 MT/s PC4-21300 DR x8 SODIMM 260-Pin RAM

    If someone needs to buy them, here is the amazon link:https://www.amazon.in/gp/product/B071KP8CGJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Hi
    Dis you taken any photo of main board when you removed the ram or video? I need to upgrade too but not sure if it has slot. Also opening swift 3 is also bit hard

    Here is the pic. The ram slots are under the steel box. There is only one screw you need to remove and then apply little pressure to pull the box open. Hope this helps.
