I want to upgrade my ram of laptop model-> 15-dy0004AU. I am currently having 4gb of ram and want to upgrade it to 12gb that means i need extra 8gb.

Hi:

 

Below is the link to the crucial memory report for your model.

 

2 x 16 GB is supported for a max of 32 GB.

One day, I recommend you replace the 4 GB memory chip with an 8 GB one because the memory will run in the higher performing dual data rate (DDR) mode with matching capacities (2 x 4, 2 x 8).

When you install memory in mismatched capacities (4 + 8, 2 + 4), the memory runs in the lower performing single data rate (SDR) mode.
