Hi.. My current laptop use Samsung DDR3 2GB (533MHz).
And I just bought a new one => Samsung DDR3 1600MHz PC3-12800 4GB . . Need advice. For best performance... should I replace the old ram with the new one, or should I use both of them on the laptop (Toshiba Sattelite L645) Thanks. |

QUOTE(Human10 @ Apr 14 2014, 10:56 PM) p/s: Just googled your laptop, the processor seems to be gen1 i-series. I believe I'm opening this topic on a wrong section. Anyway thank you so much for your answer.. And from here, I think the most your processor can support is just 1066mhz. http://ark.intel.com/products/50178/Intel-...-Cache-2_53-GHz   Since the most it can support is 1066mhz, does that mean I can't use the 1600mhz ram? Or I can use it.. but the speed will be reduced to 1066 mhz?? |
