Laptop Ram

Anonymous Mon 15 Apr 2024 09:55:49 No.1455986 View View Reply Original Report

I have a lenovo Y520 laptop and the singular 8gb ram stick inside it is a "RMSA3260MH78HAF-2666".

Would it be an issue if I buy a stick of "RMSA3260KC78HAF-2666" or "RMSA3260ME78HAF-2666" as a replacement?

I mean replacement as in the replacement of a second stick of "RMSA3260MH78HAF-2666" RAM

each of these should do fine. same manufacturer, same frequency, i don't see why it wouldn't work.

I neither see why any other ram stick of any other manufacturer wouldn't work with a different ram stick of same specs but of different manufacturer yet there is a problem supposedly.

Yeah some laptops frown upon different brands. I have a Lenovo Ideapad Gaming laptop that wouldn't boot with 2x16gb sticks, one being Samsung and the other Crucial. Both 16GB, both 3600mhz.
It works fine with 2xSamsung.
So I SUPPOSE if you put 2 of the same manufacturer, it SHOULD work.

Notice "SUPPOSE" and "SHOULD". No way of knowing unless you try. If you don't wanna risk buying ram that won't work maybe take it to the shop. They'll do that for you

Ok, however the listed ram sticks each have different scores on benchmark sites.

meh. doesn't really matter and you wont feel any difference.
just like ssd drives where you don't feel if you're using 7gb/sec top of the line drive or 3gb/sec. you only feel it when moving lots of data and running benchmarks.
plus, you're talking about 2666mhz ram. I had laptop with 2666mhz ram and there's literally no difference from the one I have now running with 3600mhz. also no difference from my pc using 4400mhz ram sticks.

this shit only shows in benchmarks and on very rare occasions in games but then it depends on everything else. wont affect your day-to-day experience in any noticeable way
