    Hi Sausage,

    the short answer is YES,  you can do it.

    but you need to check the CL - Cas Latency, for best performances it's must be equal to other ram stick.

    Thank you. I checked with CPU-Z and it saying my ram is cl21 and the Ballistix i been looking at say there cl16. That should be ok right?

    @Sausage my advice if u want to get the best performance forget the stock ram and get a ready dual channel set either hyperx or vengeance and no do not mix ram with different CL it has to be the exact size/clock/CL to work in dual channel without issues good luck :)

    Yeah was gonna get a new dual set. I was looking at vengeance before the ballistiks but then started to think maybe I should get the vengeance. Thanks for the advise. I found it harder to find out info on a laptop board in comparison to a pc. Pc you just search the board and find the info you need but laptop I really couldn’t find much lol. Thanks for the advise
