usually no prob..
even if mobo capped at 1333,
then the clock speed of ram will adjust accordingly
means new ram (1600) will only work at lower speed (1333)
correct me if i am wrong
btw,how can laptop ram become faulty?
Thanks for the feedback,
im not sure how it became faulty, basically before that i using 8gb ram, then after 2 years. my pc starting to hang and the usage of ram is 100%... after i remove one 4gb ram, everything goes normal.
then i tried to put back the 4 gb ram... the pc wont turned on anymore.. thats it, i remove one 4gb everything fine.
untill recently i think, 4gb of ram is not enough, because photoshop/illustrator/after effect only already used up 2-3.5 gb of ram.
so i want to upgrade the ram...
for the the speed of RAM (MHz) is solved..
i just wanted to know whethere (PC3 12800) is suitable for my MOBO RAM SODIM socket..
i did some research, i found it is fine, but just want to make sure of it....basically both are DDR3... but is compatible..
i dont want to wasting money here...hehehe xD
