Need help with RAM

[mphhot2]

i currently have a Dv6-6135dx and i want to upgrade it's ram because it's using DDR3 667mhz low quality ram. And this is my first time using this laptop. So i was wondering if there's a specific ram that only laptop's motherboard can fit. is there a limit? and can someone suggest me one?

667mhz are ddr2 not ddr3.
install sandra lite software and see how much max ram support your laptop..
then we can help you well.

Laptop RAM tends to be really really short, that is pretty much how you can tell that it is laptop ram. Regular computer RAM is twice as long.

To clarify, laptops use SO-DIMM memory sticks. If you don't want to install any software, you can use the online memory scanning tool from www.crucial.com

Basically, if you allow the scanner to check your system, the results will show you what RAM is supported (DDR2 or DDR3), and the max capacity supported by your motherboard. And since crucial is a RAM manufacturer, you'll even get some recommendations for upgrades.
