Good afternoon, tell me please!
I have an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-42-R705 laptop (NH.Q3REU.008) Black
I want to add ssd and 8 GB  RAM there.
In my model there is a RAM microne MTA8ATF1G64HZ-2G6E1-2666 8gb (but  maximum frequency is 2400/ or I am mistaken?). What memory then to put?
I want to settled  Kingston SODIMM DDR4-2666 8192MB PC4-21300 (KVR26S19S8 / 8) - Will it work, or can it take something else? and SSD - Kingston SSD UV500 240GB M.2 2280 SATAIII 3D NAND TLC (SUV500M8 / 240G) - suitable?
Sorry for bad english..

    Thanks, but now you have completely confused me. My system officially supports a maximum frequency of 2400 (ryzen 5 2500U), but RAM was originally installed with a frequency of 2666.

    You are correct, I think Acer only install 2666mhz regardless of the model. I have the same system and it does not operate at 2666mhz. My system also shipped with 2666mhz 8gb RAM which ran at 2400mhz. I settled for the Crucial 2400mhz Single Rank which operates perfectly in Dual Channel at 2400mhz. Link below, write down the part number and buy from Amazon

    Please click YES if I have answered your question, thankyou
