    I use the Acer Aspire 5 A515-45-R74Z, or the Acer Aspire A515-45 series, and I've been wondering which exact ram I should use to upgrade my device? I did some research and figured out that my computer uses 8GB DDR4 PC4-25600 3200MHz SODIMM NON-ECC Unbuffered 260pin 1.2V CL19 Single Rank memory, but I'm lost on which exact memory upgrade I should go for. I saw a crucial ram that's compatible but I don't know what specific rank it is (Crucial did not specify).

    • @thomas1699
      @thomas1699 Год назад

      If you know that it needs DDR 4 3200, you are good to go. No need to worry about single rank or double rank.
