Compatibility 4GB RAM with AsRock G41M-VS3 Motherboard

[tigerspartanyt]

Hi guys, I have a question, I want to update my PC and read an AMD HD 7470 GPU, but the CSGO starts me extremely slow and I guess it's because I only have 2GB of RAM, so I'm thinking about putting 4GB but removing the 2GB card RAM, that is, I do not want 6GB in total, I only want 4GB, that is, my motherboard will only be the 4GB stick, so they do not look for compatibility with the 2GB, use Windows 10 Pro, the case is that I do not know much about these things and I wanted to show them the only one I have available for my budget, it is used but at least it works, the fact is, I wanted to know if it is compatible with my motherboard "AsRock G41M-VS3" (http://www.asrock.com/mb/intel/g41m-vs3/) and here also I leave the 4GB RAM "pc3 10600u 999"

Pc3 10600u 999 = 1333 Mhz frequency memory but it's DDR3, your motherboard supports DDR3 1333 up to 2x4GB
So your choice of memory is compatible with your motherboard.

Friend, my current RAM is 2GB not 4GB, all its information in the following photos of CPUZ, the RAM of 4GB that I want to buy is in the image above, all its specifications, model and according to the image above, the brand it's Lenovo

-You are running a generic DDR3 1070 2GB downclocked to 800 MHz. (389 MHz x2 = 800 MHZ)

- You can buy a 4GB stick of DDR3 1066 = Pc3 10600u 999, but preferably from a good brand like Hynix,Samsung or kingston.

Arock G41M-VS3 supports 2 x 4GB DDR3 1066 and 1333MHz (Overclocked) as the link you mentioned shows.

PC3-10600 is 1333MHz. The 999 usually is the timing. I would recommend buying 4 GB PC3-10600 to add along with existing 2GB or better replace with 2 x 4GB PC3-10600

PC3-10600 may auto downlock to the lower speed supported by the motherboard.

And DDR3 1066 is not PC3-10600. It is PC3-8500

CPUZ scan screenshot shows you have 2GB DDR3 1333MHz PC3-10600 operating at real clock speed 667MHz. Double times is 1333MHz (667MHz x 2 ) So it is running at 1333MHz.
