as easy as shown above - thanks for making this video made me upgrade my laptop that by the way when I bought it was told memory is not upgradeable . Anyhow for $50 my laptop is usable again !
Thanks for video can I just add another 4 ram in the addition slot? (which I did not see in your video) or is it better to take out existing 4 ram and replace with 8 ram. Obvious the 4 ram is a cheaper option. Thanks.
most of these Acer models only allow 1 slot so you only have one option of buying 8GB RAM. but if your model DOES allow two slots, then buying an additional 4GB RAM to add to your existing 4GB will not only be cheaper but you'll also be taking advantage of the dual channel which will slightly increase your performance. my Acer Aspire 3 A315-54K also allows 1 slot so i'll be removing my current 8GB RAM with a 16GB RAM next week. :)
I was working on the laptop (the same laptop in the video) and it was charging then it turned off completely and didn't turn on after that.. any advice how i fix this ?
i think that would mainly come down to the hard drive and cpu in the system. but more ram usually doesnt hurt but wont usually completely change the running speed
if the plastic part that says "ASPIRE" thats inbetween then screen and the keyboard get removed like somehow it got it out, how can i put it back in, like i cant figure out the trick🙄
Good day. I just want to ask if you are familiar of the ACER ASPIRE 3 A314-32 C0HQ model of laptop? Does it have a heat sink? Thank you for your further response.
My acer aspire 3 laptop started flickering while i am working and speed also slows down. Then i have to press the power button and start it again, but after 2 mins it starts flickering again. Please tell any solution
wow acer really did it, they are better than asus with the cover of asus hanged to the wires when you open.... I ordered 8 gb ram hopefully it will not be difficult to put in the extra ram
Hello ! I bought an Aspire model (3 A315-22-46YA8). I tried to install 2 different Crucial drams 4 gb ( 2133 and the other 2666). Non of them worked. PC doesn't boot.. Suggestions ?

@@rickstechrepairs I removed factory RAM (4gb Stick) and added a 16gb now it says I have 20gb Ram, where is the other 4? do I need to remove or will it function OK?
Hi Rick really good tutorial I'm going to get this exact laptop off of Amazon, you put in 8 gig ram can I put in 16 gig and can I upgrade the memory??? I just subscribed 😀
@@rickstechrepairs As I know theese Acers came even 4 or 8 GB soldered to the MOBO. I think this one had 4GB soldered and 4 GB slotted and you just upgraded to 12 Gigs. This BIOS isn't able to handle more than 8GB added RAM.
Yes, 100% - Always disconnect the power before adding / removing RAM... and be careful not to touch the contacts as he did in this video, as RAM is vulnerable to static discharge. A computer technician should be wearing a static strap to prevent static electricity from damaging the RAM or any other components in the computer.
Dear @rick tech am currently having issues with loading adobe programmes too much lagging and very slow if I upgrade the ram will it improve drastically? Plz advice
first thing i look at when computers are sluggish is what hard drive is in the machine.. ..Anything thats running a 3rd generation intel cpu and newer (so 7/8year old pc's) the biggest thing that makes them sluggish is the hard drive, replace that with an SSD and that Will give you a noticable speed improvement
i have a a-315-42 which is nowhere to be found but i unscrewed it and its easily possible to see and replace my ram, you can always unscrew and check i guess?
I don't belive so, well not static electricity There is a extremely slim risk of damage. But I find simply confirming the machine is 100% powered of before swapping the ram
You should push the power button a few times after disconnecting the battery every time you do anything to a computer. Also anyone that has the newer model should ignore this, it is totally different.
Just to confirm if i have this model that comes with 4gb ram, when i replace ram can i add a 4gb to the empty slot to make 8gb ram or do i have to buy one 8gb ram
thorough explanation and quality demonstration, thank u my guy
Happy to help

Why didn't you put both of the ram?
Thank you it helped. I also wanted to ask is it possible to swap the CPU ?
Not possible

don't believe so

You are welcome!

If you can disconnect the battery, give that a shot
What more can you upgrade for a better gaming instead of ram?. Mine is Acer aspire3 A314-22
Only ram and SSD can be upgraded
Whats the issue if both led indicators are flashing when plugged with charger? Blue and orange led lights blinking
not sure sorry.
sounds like its auto powering up but still trying to charge the battery
@@rickstechrepairs and it stops charging..
What the type of screwdriver and if i put 16gb in my acer aspire 3 it is perfect for gaming
More ram won't help much for a laptop without a decent graphics card in it
Ok thank
I have a 4gb acer laptop and need it to be faster for university online work. Would upgrading to 8gb RAM help the overall performance of my laptop?
i think that would mainly come down to the hard drive and cpu in the system.
but more ram usually doesnt hurt but wont usually completely change the running speed

It usually clips back to the screens back plastic with some force
Yo love the vid helps me a lot but witch type of ram did you buy I can’t get the correct one I have the same pc as you
depending on price you could
1x8GB DDR4 2666mhz Or higher depending on price
1x16GB DDR4 2666mhz or 3200mhz if its cheapers
Good day.

No idea sorry
You will have to open to find out
The place where the dvd drive goes is where the hdd goes i had an hdd there in my one and no ram
You can get odd to hard drive SSD adapters
In conclusion, only 1 ram slot?
Yes

We can upgrade cpu or GPU
No, to CPU and GPU
No

Not sure, take it to a local pc repair shop
Is disconnecting the battery really needed when upgrading the ram?
I personally dont belive so, but plenty of people subscribe to the idea that you do
Is there any chance i could mess this up and break my laptop?
There is that risk
wow acer really did it, they are better than asus with the cover of asus hanged to the wires when you open.... I ordered 8 gb ram hopefully it will not be difficult to put in the extra ram

Hello ! I bought an Aspire model (3 A315-22-46YA8). I tried to install 2 different Crucial drams 4 gb ( 2133 and the other 2666). Non of them worked. PC doesn't boot.. Suggestions ?
The Acer must not like that brand
Where did you buy the ram stick from
Amazon
Where is the Harddisk ?
4:38 NVMe SSD Bottom Right
how many gb was tht mem stick? im guessing 8? mine won;t take 16 for some reason but does have 4gb soldered on board
It can take 12GB Ram max
would it be wise to just disconnect the fan completely? would it increase battery life?
No that is a bad idea
That would cause the CPU to run at maximum temp for its whole working life
How to insert a SIM card in the Acer Aspire3?
No idea
I have a question, is the ram slot for additional ram or is it already have a ram stick in it?
not sure
Is there a specific kind of ram you have to buy for this laptop? I have it and I'm looking to upgrade
go either 8GB or 16GB Single SODIMM of 2666mhz
hey mr, nice video ,
so my pc is the same model as yours, whenever i try to play an old game as fifa 14 it annoyingly lags and sluggs. will upgrading the ram improve my gameplay experience ?thanks in advance
i think the limitation is more the lack of dedicated GPU.
if you are on 4GB of ram maybe upgrade to 8gb
Mine wont boot at all. When i press the power button the "tianocore" keep looping
would it work with hyperx ram? (the compact version of course)
dont see why not
No, it won't work.
Why not?

where is the other ram slot cuz my laptop says it has 2 and i’m confused and also is the cpu upgradable on the acer aspire a315-23 pls reply thanks
cpu is not upgradable
i would assume its lying, or you have a single slot and the other "stick of ram" is soldered to the board
how do i know which ram to buy sir
install CPUZ and run, it will tell you what you currently have

Can I upgrade my ram to 16 gb ?
5:40 , yes you could
why does it say my computer has 2 slots when i only see one, i have the same computr but im confused
Where does it say two slots?
Probably soldered ram and one free slot available
is this procedure is the same for all acer aspire 3 variants?
It will be pretty darn similar
I have got that exact PC so does that mean I have a DDR4 RAM?
If it's the same model and CPU, then yes it would be

why my acer aspire 3 does not have ram in the ram location but the windows detect i have 4gb ram?

Did PUSKILL DDR4 8GB RAM did a trick?is it good?
