memory for x230
memory for x230
Hi
it is a simple question but i somewhat cannot fetch the manual from the web site.
I wanna increase the memory of a x230 type 2325-78G.
It has 8GB at the moment (2x 4GB).
I'd like to know which memories are compatible and what is the max/Slot.
Enjoy your help!

Re: memory for x230
Max. 2x8GB=16GB
204-pin PC3-12800 (DDR3-1600) non-parity, non-EEC SO-DIMM
Stay away from Corsair and Value RAM-modules.

DDR3-1600 1.5v , or , DDR3L-1600 1.35v
personally, i'd get the 1.35v because it uses less power and output less heat.

Re: memory for x230
Hah, I just realised I have a 1,50v and a 1,35v module in my computer. The former is a Crucial 8gb module, and the latter a cheap skate 4gb Huyndai module.

Re: memory for x230
Ram modules must run with the same speed and voltage,
when mixing ram, it runs with slowest speed, and highest voltage

Re: memory for x230
i use HyperX Impact in my Alienware and have had great results with it....that's what i would recommend... at 1600mhz it runs 9-9-10 stock, comes in 8gb sticks
it can also be up-flashed with Thaiphoon Burner to a higher speed later...i upflashed mine from 1866 to 2133 and change timings...zero issues a year later

Re: memory for x230
Don't take these postings as gospel they are old posts but certainly they are data points, fixed the google and added 2016 year to keep search current. Seems to see no problem this time.
Yet, I prefer to buy some OEM memory like micron and elpida, samsung and hynix if possible.
