What documentation do you have that specifically says it can use either DDR3 OR DDR4?

1. You can't upgrade the motherboard in a laptop.

2. Your current motherboard may or may not be able to use either DDR3 OR DDR4. But probably not.

3. Even if you were able to change the RAM to DDR4, you'd see a minimal benefit, at best.
