Question 1

I want to add this to my ASUS VivoBook S400CA (which has its factory-installed 4 GB of RAM). I think it will be compatible based on the specs and research but wanted to check. Will it be compatible? Thanks very much.

Accepted Answer

Yes, it will.

Just take out the pre-installed 4GB stick and insert this one. Or adding this one on top of the existing stick.

The boot up time after installing might take a bit longer than usual, but just give your computer a few minute to read the new ram. then you are good to go~

Question 2

is this compatible with the Lenovo g500?

Accepted Answer

It depends on what you currentlu have in it. If the memory you have in it is the 1600 MHz and you just want to add more memory then yes. If not check with the manufacturer and see how fast your computer can handle

Question 3

will this work with the intel core i3 2nd gen?

Accepted Answer

Im pretty sure this is what I'm using in my intel core i5.  But what you really need to look at is what your laptop supports.  If your model supports DD3 1600 (PC3 12800), then YES..  This will work.  Also depends what memory is already in the laptop.  Dont mix match the speeds.  Also, if you have a smaller memory module in the laptop, you want to move that to slot 2.  Always put the larger memory in slot 1.

Question 4

Is it compatible with Lenovo G 500 (Model 20236) laptop ?

Accepted Answer

Using Corsairs memory finder tool, the result showed that this would work for you.

Question 5

Will this memory work in an older HP laptop from 2010? Pavilion dv7 4060US model.

Accepted Answer

Based on the specs I pulled up from googling your model number, it will.

"MEMORY
Max Supported Size 8 GB
Technology DDR3 SDRAM
Form Factor SO DIMM 204-pin"

The specs listed here match the specs of this RAM module.

Question 6

in the memory finder it said this will work in a asus z5c-js31 can anyone confirm?

Accepted Answer

The memory I bough went into an Asus micro PC desktop. It has been running without issues for more than one year.

Question 7

after installing this would my laptop automatically read it or would i need to install it?

Accepted Answer

RAM, fundamentally, does not require additional software. The most common mistakes people make are not buying the correct RAM, mismatching clock speeds and capacities or failing to properly seat the RAM stick in the motherboard slots. Do your research and you should be fine.
I've not had any problems with this RAM, by the way.

Question 8

I have a Dell Latitude 3330 and wanting to add another 4G.  Can you confirm which product(s) are compatible for this machine?  Thanks

Accepted Answer

The best answer for you is 1. Go to the Dell support site. 2.Enter your service tag. 3. Find the manual for your laptop. 4. Read memory specifications and capacity. 5. Order memory for the specifications.

Question 9

I bought this item because Newegg memory finder said it would work with Toshibia C55D-A5120.. well I got it installed it, and hit power... black screen.. so the question is! is the RAM module i received faulty or is this item not compatible with the toshibia C55D-A5120?

Accepted Answer

Hi there,  so I am assuming you kept your older memory 4GB memory chip in there, and added this other corsair 4gb memory chip in the vacant bay.  Now in my experience usually its best practice to match memory in both bays as that has a greater chance of working right.  The different clock speeds of 1333Mhz, and your new 1600Mhz  chips probably don't play nice together in that brand of laptop.

I would recommend buying another of the same chip you purchased here, and remove the older chip that came from your laptop originally and you will be just fine.

But, to be on the safe side I would remove your original memory chip from your laptop and place the new one you bought in there alone.  (4GB corsair one) and see if your laptop boots up with the corsair chip alone, just to be on the safe side.

Hope things work out for you.

Question 10

Will this work in my MACBOOKPRO?

Accepted Answer

No. You need to get memory that is specific for Apple computers. That is what I originally got it for but had to return it since it did not work with my mac book pro
