Hello,

I'm planning to upgrade the memory of my machine, but I can't seem to find the manufacturer and speed of the present one. I'd like to buy exacly the same.

My notebook is HP Pavilion DV7 3150eq Entertainment PC, currently it has 4 GB and supports up to 8. A looked at the product specification but the only information there is that it has 4 GB DD3 RAM and the motherboard supports up to 8 GB of RAM. It doesn't say even how many slots are there 2, 4 etc.

 

Does anyone know who is the manifacturer and the speed of the RAM memory installed on the notebook model? And if not to much to ask, how many memory slots are there on the motherboard?

 

Thanks,

I. Hinov

Hi,

 

Normally each laptop has 2 slots for RAM. You can use the following information:

 

Memory Type: DDR3 PC3-10600, DDR3 PC3-8500, DDR3 (non-ECC)
Maximum Memory: 8GB - Slots: 2
Each memory slot can hold DDR3 PC3-10600, DDR3 PC3-8500 with a maximum of 4GB per slot.

 

Regards.

BH

Hi,

 

Since there are no manifacturer, I'll have two brand new 4GB cards and replace the old one.

 

Once again, thanks.
