Updating netbook RAM

Last response: in Memory
Share

I just recently bought a new netbook, it's an Acer AO725-0691. It comes with 2GB of memory, but apparently it can hold up to 4GB. Since memory is so cheap, I thought I might try upgrading it. My biggest question, of course, is what kind of RAM does it use? How do I find this out? I am pretty sure that it can only take one stick of RAM, so it would have to be 1 4GB stick, and not 2 2GB sticks. Is there any other considerations I should make? Since this is my first time upgrading RAM on a computer (since I am a noob) any tips, suggestions, or advice would be welcome.

You can use netbook memory. But you need to know the supporter memory speed. Check with cpu-z to find out memory speed and then buy a 4gb memory stick with matching speed.

So what field am I looking at in CPU-Z? I don't see any labelled "speed"

this is ddr3 memory and it work at jedec ­3 but could run at jedec 5 take the part number so you will find the same one ( hmt325s6cfr8c-h9 ) just goolgle that there are a lot on e-bay

the crucial one is at 1.5 volts same as the one you use now, your stick at jedec 5 could do 685 x2 = give 1370 so the 1333 is max speed for the crucial but your system will run them lower there been test with your system model
