Hello guys, I am interested in upgrading my ram in my probook 6570b. I have 1 4gb stick in there now, and i have a spare slot so i figured that i would go to 8gb. I need a link to AMAZON to the correct stick. http://imgur.com/a/SoX7j that is my current specs. Thanks!!!!

Would i bottle neck or have any issues going from 4gb to 12? and having an 8gb stick and a 4gb stick??

you are running in single channel configuration now, you will be in single channel config after, so no decrease.

if you had 2 identical sticks and they were running dual channel, and you replaced one of them with a larger stick it would revert back to single channel and you would have a performance hit, since you are only running one stick there will be no performance hit from dual to single channel configs.

Hey i ordered and received the first one, i properly installed it, but the computer doesnt recognize its there. What do i do in the BIOS? I have never been there before.

BUMP

EDIT: there was a sticker preventing one side from going in all the way, fixed, thank you sir for helping me find the correct ram! :)
