Hi SPSingh1,

 

According to specifications, the laptop can take two 4 GB sticks, making it 8 GB total. Make sure that they are both the same RAM sticks. And if you want to get the advantage of RAM, make sure to get dual-channel RAM. Lets say you want to get 4 GB of RAM, get two 2 GB sticks that have the same frequency, and if you get 8 GB then go for two 4 GB sticks. And also make sure not to get DDR4 memory because your laptop does not support it.

 

Hope this helps you.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Mitchel
