Hello,

 

I purchased HP Pavilion g6-2230tx laptop from India.

It has 2GB DDR3 1600MHz ram

I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS

 

I want to add more 8GB ram in another unused slote

 

Kingston ValueRAM 8GB DDR3 1600MHz CL11 1.35V SODIMM (KVR16LS11/8)

 

Is above ram good for my laptop? Please guide me.

 

Also let me know that what is max ram capacity of this laptop on mentioned OS

 

I read some where that I can put maximum 8 GB

If it is true then what you suggest in following options otherwice I will put new 8GB ram so it will become 10GB total

1) Remove current ram of 2GB and put one 8GB new ram

2) Not to remove current ram of 2GB and put one 8GB new ram in another slote

3) Put 2 ram of 4GB in both slote

 

Thanks

Piyush
