The Crucial website shows compatible DDR3 memory of 16GB as opposed to the maximum 8GB quoted in the company's datasheets. Which is correct?

Hi Dan, I think I answered this question elsewhere, but the laptop should support 16GB. I have the earlier version of this laptop (V5-171-6422) and upgraded it to 16GB with no issues. The Intel CPU specification declares support up to 32GB, but 16GB is the maximum for this device since there are only two memory slots. If there is a limitation of 8GB, it's either the OS (I'm running Linux), marketing, or deliberate neutering of the hardware (not sure why). --JT Review

If you are unsure, check out Crucial's website. They have a program that will tell you what RAM will match your computer.

Best I can say is that you should look up that memory module inline to find it's exact specs. Best bet would be to look on the manufactures site

Yes, this is the correct type of RAM for that model and it would max out at 16 GB of RAM.

DDR3 memory referes to the memory sticks you can install and is unrelated to your video card. Video cards are compatible with pretty much any motherboard.

F. Murillo is partially correct. At first try, the Crucial website told me to buy the CT1899983, but that's DDR2! My Toshiba is a DD3, so I guess some models take the DD2 and some take DDR3. Just check the underside of your computer. If it says DDR3, this is indeed the right RAM for you!

Hello. Here in Amazon you can get them. They are any notebook memory DDR3L, which means DDR3 SODIMM 1.35 volts. You can use 1333 or 1600 MHz. That is all. I guess you can use 2 8GB modules, for 16GB total memory.

I would say yes. Crucial's website has a compatibility tool. It tells me the specs of the memory you are asking about look remarkably similar to the memory in the link below. Mind you this is all from Crucial, they are not the only brand out there, I just happen to like them.http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=F0E41EC7A5CA7304

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233264That is the Corsair Vegeance DDR3 1600 SODIMM 8GB. I see alot of people upgrading to that.

Yes, it is compatible.- Dual Channel DDR3 memory technology- 2 x DDR3 DIMM slots- Supports DDR3 2600+(OC)/2133(OC)/1866(OC)/1600/1333/1066 non-ECC, un-buffered memoryAccording to manufacter, it can handle DDR3 RAM in 1600MHZ and a max amount of RAM of 8GB, so, according to manufacter specifications, it will work with no problem. According to the previous anwser, the list he metions was made when the Motherboard was new in the market, so probably this model of Kingston wasn't available at the time

Yes, you're on the right path. When purchasing RAM you need the same type that comes within your laptop or Desktop. Brand name is your choice. Memory: PC3-8500/10600 DDR3 SODIMM 204-Pin memory Maximum Memory: 8GB Slots: 2

Maximum memory is 8192MB. There are two slots. The best way to identify the memory that will work is to go to crucial's website and use their tool to identify the different types of memory that will work.

Alejandro My unit came with DDR3. There is room for a total of 16GB with two identical 8GB memory chips. My unit came with an 8 plus a 4, meaning that in order to fill both of the memory slots to capacity, the second chip would have to be totally removed and replaced with another 8GB DDR3.

Yep, it works. I was able to upgrade the RAM to 4GB. Here's what I used:QTY:2P/N: CT1651001Manufacturer: Crucial Technologyhttp://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=CED8A023A5CA7304# Module Size: 2GB# Package: 204-pin SODIMM# Feature: DDR3 PC3-10600# Specs: DDR3 PC3-10600 * CL=9 * Unbuffered * NON-ECC * DDR3-1333 * 1.5V * 256Meg x 64 * Screenshot: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/8924/systeminfot.jpg

Not sure, but I went to www.crucial.com to find the specific ram for my PC!

Sorry, I do not know the answer. You can probably find that out at the Crucial website. Good luck.

Both boarsd I ordered were rev 2.1, which claims to support DDR3-1333 memory. The box should say which memory types it supports though. I should mention though that I couldn't even get this board to POST, with either one I recieved. It seems to be VERY picky about your hardware configuration and would not boot no matter what I did. Your mileage may very, but just a heads up.
