Do i need to have 2 same ram installed for it to work? because I read something from other websites, If I need to have 2 same rams installed, what is the current ram installed in aspier e5 471? current ram is only 4gb, but is it okay if i buy same ram but 8gb? please help me...

    Hi Justin,

     

    1. You'll be able to find the brand and the part number of your current memory module with CPU-Z (SPD tab) zipped version (no installation).
    2. Original memory modules of 4Gb - DDR3L - 1600MHz: Kingston, Samsung, Adata and Hynix.
    3. Specifications of your laptop: Link.

    thanks for the reply ace, I have Hyundai electronics ram but I want to add an 8gb ram DDR3 SODIMM 1600, is it safe if I install it in second slot without removing the current ram?
