My Pc: HP Pavillion AB 523tx
i3 5th gen
Original RAM 4gb
Win 10 64 bit
Hey guys i bought a new 8gb Kingston RAM because my original 4gb ram was inadequate for gaming (tbh, GTA 5). So i installed the new ram and took out the original one. i thus got 8 gm ram. but to try my luck, i installed my original ram too with the new one (8gb+4gb). and to my amazement, my pc shows 12gb. i heard that they wont work together, but they did. So my question is, Do i really get 12 gb of ram or is my system just showing up wrong numbers? is there any way that i could cross check my ram? and is it safe to use? will it damage my PC?
