Swift 3 315-52G Upgrading Questions

Hello everyone, I would like to upgrade the memory performance of my laptop by buying an additional 8gb ram but I have a lot of questions regarding that situation. First of all, the ram values of my own device are as follows:

According to these details, the ram that I would prefer should have the same values as the one on its own, respectively CL19,2666MHZ,DDR4 ,etc...
But what would happen if I went for a ram whose specifications are a little bit different from this ram like the one that crucial recommends for  my laptop, https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/swift-3-sf315-52g/CT13112726 or like this one https://www.hepsiburada.com/kingston-8gb-2400mhz-ddr4-ram-kvr24s17s8-8-p-HBV0000031D3U
Furthermore, if I buy a 8GB ram insead of 4 (12 gb memory in total), does that mean it won't work as dual-channel enabled memories?

Thanks a lot in advance, your immediate attention to this matter is appreciated.

Hi,
You can upgrade it with a matching module of your current module, that means getting another 4GB of 2666MHz module, then your laptop will run at dual channel.
If you  install a 8GB module, part of it will utilise the dual channel and the rest will run at single channel(if it's needed).
If you mix the speeds(2400+2666MHz), the faster module will down clock to the lower speed, that means your 2666MHz module will run at 2400MHz.

Thanks a lot, What do you recommend me to do in this situation? Shall I buy a 4GB with 2666 mhz or 8gb with 2400 mhz? Does the deficiency of that dual channel feature affect my performance experience in a negative way?

I would suggest you to get either a 4GB 2666MHz or a 8GB 2666MHz nad install, dual channel will be slightly faster but you won't notice the difference.

Thanks a lot, lastly, does it constitute a problem if I purchase a ram whose clock latency is different from the original one

It's better to get modules with same CL value.
