I have notebook Lenovo Y50-70 with Samsung 8GB DDR3-1600 PC3-12800 1.35V pre-installed ram in one slot.

I would like to upgrade the ram by installing another single 8GB in the other ram slot.
However, I might not easily find Samsung one with the same specs to be installed.

So, I would like to know the other brands that show compatibility with the pre-installed Samsung one.

Thanks

For dual channel memory , it s better to be the same RAM . Otherwise , i cant see reason to not mix defferent brands with the same specs - 8GB DDR3-1600 PC3-12800 1.35V and the same Latency time , unless Samsung play unfair .

Many thanks for everyone help.

However, I would like to know if the ram chip manufacturer matters or not assuming the same specs as the installed one's.
For example, will it be more compatible, if its chip is manufactured by Samsung or not ?

I am sorry for my limited info, but I am eager to quite understand this point.
