Ram upgrade for Dell Inspiron 15R 3537

by cPnu Sep 20, 2018 9:02PM PDT

Currently i am using samsung 4gb 1600mHz DDR3L 12800S-11-12-B4 + Micron 2gb PC3L-12800S-11-11-C1 two ram sticks. I want to upgrade to 12 gb Ram, so i m planning to replace micron ram with some 8gb ram. I want to know whether i should buy samsung 8gb ram with similar latency and 1600mHz or any other ram will give better performance? I want to know the ram that can give good performance with samsung 4gb 1600mHz DDR3L 12800S-11-12-B4. Also please tell me what no. "12" written in bold in first configuration depicts?

Go get a set from Crucial.com and either sell off the old ram, give old away or shelve it.

Yes, you can upgrade your RAM to 12 GB if your motherboard support but first of all you have to clear that how much RAM you exactly need
