Question

Iron

Laptop RAM 4GB, there is another slot. It is necessary that the ozushki be of the same company and of the same volume. Or can you just connect any ozushnik?
Yes, and more. Is it possible to upgrade the video card of the laptop or replace it with a more powerful one?

Answer 1

You need to know the maximum amount of RAM + whether your laptop supports dual-channel mode or not. I also have a slot for a second RAM in my laptop, only it does not support 2-channel mode. It also needs to be the same frequency. Through AIDA or SoftSandra, check for two-channel.
PS In short, start from the maximum amount of RAM for a laptop, if 8GB, then only insert 4GB and look at the frequency so that you can take it with the same frequency when buying.

Answer 2

When selecting additional RAM, there are many nuances. If you don’t have experience yourself, it’s easier to bring a laptop to the store and ask for it. If there are problems, you can come and file a claim. And if you buy it and it doesn't fit, it's harder to return it.
You also need to watch the video, but usually the video does not change.

Answer 3

As for the video, I can say that there are some laptops with a replaceable discrete / free slot, but there are a lot of nuances. Some manufacturers flash a BIOS that only works with a certain set of video cards. A couple of times I met the same laptops from different batches with interchangeable video cards (the base of the laptop is the same, only the video differed), which did not accept a video card from their colleague. Considering that you also need to watch videos for laptops, it’s easier to buy a new laptop that suits you completely and that’s it.

Answer 4

The laptop would have been voiced ...
In general - set the same frequency for any models and do not bathe (and even the size may be different). Only the whole question is whether the chipset can chew 8-12 gigabytes of memory.
And it's better not to think about replacing the video card.
