I want to upgrade my ram... from 2gb to 4gb.
My question is, does my laptop supported dual channel ram? What is the best performance wise? Put another 2gb of any brand, or buy 2 pieces of identical ram?
Can someone recommend me brand that is stable for my laptop?
I can see... five main brands. Corsair,OCZ, MUSHKIN, TEAM ELITE and Kingston.
Any forumer/asus gurus please help me?

My laptop spec:

A42JY-VX244

i3-370M-2.40GHz
14" HD Color Shine(LED)
2GB DDR3
320GB-5400rpm
AMD HD 6470 1GB DDR3

Thank you...

Thanks for the answers guys...
Anyway... i've checked my memory using cpuz program...
It shows...

DRAM FREQ : 532 MHZ
fsb:dram : 4:16
7-7-7-20-1t

but the max bandwidth is pc3-10700 (667 mhz)
manufactured by hynix...
it is ddr3-1066 or ddr3-1333?
confusing....


By the way....i've checked my i3-370m at intel website, and it can support up to 8gb of ram....
but asus said...just 2+2=4gb MAX...

Which is this true? Has anyone tried to put above recommended ram capacity? (Even though the proc can 'see' it?)

sorry for so many questions....newbie here.
