Hi

Laptop HP ProBook 450 G1

Product: E9Y44EA#ABB

Memory: HP16D3LS1KBG/8GB 2Rx8 PC3L - 12800S -11 -11- F3
9995428 - E13,A00G 6380970 -1342

691160 - H61 PKI

 

I would like to upgrade my memory ram for another one as you see above

I've checked on several website but unavailable, however I've got in official Kingston webpage 
https://www.ebuyer.com/737969-kingston-8gb-1600mhz-204-pin-cl11-ddr3l-sodimm-non-ecc-unbuffered-1-35...
But I've seen has a bit different module I mean mine has PC3L and from Kingston webpage DDR3L

It would be compatibile in my laptop ?  I have done a research DDR3L and PC3L are with Low Voltage, but I'm not sure if it would be alright if one of the memory has PC3L and the other one DD3L
Could anyone help me with these questions ?
I can buy it without risk or not ? ( i mean do not damage any components in laptop or appearing some failure)

 

Thank you in advance


Regards
Szilard

The industry has to be faulted for this.  Memory is described in two ways, by how many "turns" per second it can make (hz) and also by how much data can go through it in a set amount of time (bandwidth). So in this case DDR3L-1600 means it is DDR (double data rate) 3rd version and can turn up to 800 times per second which you double to make 1600. The L means low voltage 1.35 volt operation. That same memory can also be described as PC3L-12800. That means again it is 3rd generation low voltage but the 12800 means how many megabits of data can flow through it in a second. 

 

So DDR3L-1600 = PC3L-12800 they are the same thing and you can buy one to run with the other. The other thing to watch out for is density. You should not mix modules with 8 blocks on the side with modules having 4 blocks on the side.
