Which RAM will work on my laptop and which is the best for me to consider?

[buster88]

I am looking forward to upgrade my RAM. I have few questions!
Q1. Should I get 2 4 GB RAMs or 1 8 GB RAM. Which option will be better and why?

Q2. Which RAM will be compatible to my laptop out of the given RAMs in the site,
4 GB http://www.flipkart.com/computers/computer-components/rams/pr?p%5B%5D=facets.capacity%255B%255D%3D4%2BGB&p%5B%5D=facets.data_rate%255B%255D%3DDDR3&p%5B%5D=facets.device%255B%255D%3DLaptop&p%5B%5D=sort%3Dpopularity&sid=6bo%2Cg0i%2Cs5u&ref=72530e6b-0c37-4afc-bf2b-585132bccfbc

8 GB http://www.flipkart.com/computers/computer-components/rams/pr?p%5B%5D=facets.capacity%255B%255D%3D8%2BGB&p%5B%5D=facets.data_rate%255B%255D%3DDDR3&p%5B%5D=sort%3Dpopularity&sid=6bo%2Cg0i%2Cs5u&ref=7d4b7e69-f049-40df-a8e7-569e4bdcbc0d


And here are the pictures of my current RAM and its specifications:

And this what is written on the empty RAM slot on my laptop:

Does it say if it is upgradeable? and if you dont wish to upgrade later then you should get 2x4gb rather than 1x8gb (check here http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1706667/ram-combo-2x4gb-4x2gb-1x8gb-system.html) and you can get this one if your motherboard supports it(http://www.flipkart.com/corsair-vengeance-ddr3-4-gb-1-x-gb-pc-ram-cmz4gx3m1a1600c9/p/itmd2rypbx4eehaf?pid=RAMD2RYPMVWCEK6E&srno=b_1&ref=d8937954-aa05-4cb2-8c32-8e533e68d640)(need your laptop specs)

[RadiKing222]

Why don't you new RAM, this is 800mhz,which is pretty slow....

You can buy two of these for example:

[RadiKing222]

Yes you can still use two of these but corsair are just better...

Which one is better? and why?
and is there any difference?

 

[RadiKing222]

Corsair is better known company and makes products with better quality than JetRam...

 

[buster88]

Corsair is better known company and makes products with better quality than JetRam...

so it will give me better performance than JetRam? and will that performance be noticeable?

Which one is better? and why?
and is there any difference?

the only difference i can see so far is some difference in the latency thing (no knowledge about that) and that the costlier one has auto overclocking feature in it

 

[RadiKing222]

its the same thing 4GB The first one is just one stick 4GB and the second is 4 sticks with 1GB on each... Usually its better to take 2x2(2 sticks with 2GB on each ) for example than 1x4(one stick with 4GB) but in this case i might be better to take the stick with the 4GB (second choise)...

 

[Shantanu Ghose]

Go for the cheaper one

 

[RadiKing222]

And like I said its better to take 2 of those who are 1x4(1 stick with 4GB) and you will have 8GB

 

[buster88]

And one last question will any of these RAMs will work with my stock RAM? As, I cannot but 2 RAMs at the moment little short on my cash, so can I buy 1 by 1 or I will have to buy together?

Check this and you will know http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804752/types-ram.html

 

[RadiKing222]

Yes!

 

[buster88]

Check this and you will know http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804752/types-ram.html

So I can buy the other one later but its better that my laptop runs on the same (exact copy) RAM.
Right?

 

[RadiKing222]

Yes
