I do not recommend the KVR for your equipment, much less to mix them, on Kingston KCP3L if I recommend them.

 
The problem that the other you are looking for, it comes out that (Discontinued) for that reason can not.

You can run this software on your computer, you can also get the same equivalent model, the same chipset, in your case would be same processor to have an i5 this model would be worth as an example::http://eu.crucial.com/eur/en/systemscanner

Thank you for your kind reply in such a short time.

 

I have checked the links you provided for Kingston RAM and it shows the model: Kingston KCP3L16SD8/8 8GB DDR3L PC3-12800 1600MHz Memory 1.35v CL11 SODIMM

I could not find the above model where I live, however, a similar model with the same specifications is available: Kingston KVR16LS11/8 8GB DDR3L PC3-12800 1600MHz Memory 1.35v CL11 SODIMM

 

Can I use KVR16LS11/8   instead of KCP3L16SD8/8 ? If not, does it matter if I upgared with a RAM from another manufacturer?

 

Thank you
