I really need to know if the ram which I want to purchase abroad, would 100% work with my laptop (Dell Inspiron 7447 pandora)

According to dells website, my laptop

The RAM is:
Corsair Vengeance CMSX8GX3M2A1600C9
- 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3-1600 SODIMM dual channel

My laptop's stock RAM: (Sorry if it's lacking specs, I used CPU-Z to determine this)
- 4GB DDR3-1600 SODIMM single channel CL11-11-11-28

I know you can buy corsair vengeance ddr3l ram off of amazon, and pretty much any brand should be good.

The ram you are getting should be compatible however, Dells website says it uses ddr3l instead of ddr3. In your case it shouldn't matter unless dell has programmed their Bios to only accept ddr3l ram.

ddr3= 1.5v
ddr3l=1.35v or 1.5v

Thanks, didn't notice that the crucial ram was ddr3. I checked Dell's support and yeah it wont support it. Especially because my processor is 4th gen.

any ram suggestions? like whats available right now in stores
