Hey Jerome

It is DDR3 1066MHZ memory, as far as i know you will be able to run a slightly higher frequency such as DDR3 1333MHZ, i would recommend it as it is around the same price and has the same latency but a slightly higher frequency. Brand wise i recommend Kingston, so maybe get 2 dimms of 4GB Kingston DDR3 1333MHZ. Try replace the 1066 that you currently have in there as the laptop will clock down the secondary module to the lower speed, and you will lose frequency.

Acer Travelmate 8572T supports upto 8GB, as you know. Since, you are having 4GB of memory you need to make sure what is the memory combination which is installed i.e, whether you are having two 2GB modules are two 4GB module.

Also follow what @PILK mentioned in post #3 about the mixing speeds. If you mix faster speed with a lower speed memory then the faster speed will default to the lower speed.

Try this site for compatible memory for your laptop - memorystock.com or I can do one better, click here for compatible memory for Acer TravelMate TimelineX 8572T
