I use Photoshop a lot and Task Manager shows that my memory is often at 75% or higher, I was hoping to upgrade my Ram, and did check the manual for what my laptop can handle, I'm at 6GB total right now and can go up to 16GB. I can go up to 1600MHz in speed.
My questions is, I always understood it was best to have both sticks of Ram the same, but when I checked my laptop, it came with two different brands and sizes. Would it be best to upgrade both? or would I do just as well upgrading only the 2GB?
Laptop:
Dell Inspiron 17R 5737
Has two ram slots, the ones it came with are:
1) Kingston 4GB 1Rx8 PC3l-12800S-11-12-B3
Model Number: knwm1
2) Micron 2GB 1Rx16 PC3l-12800S-11-11-C1
Model Number: mt4ktf25664hz-1g6e1
