Hello, I think it doesn't really matter because all the memories I list below are very similar. But curious if any of them fits the best and will be the most stable. The laptop has a soldered 8GB RAM module. This is the datasheet for the soldered RAM: https://media-www.micron.com/-/media/cli...97c9f1e1ab *I have the MT40A1G1 062E And these are the 3 sticks I have in mind to buy: 1) Kingston ValueRAM: https://www.kingston.com/datasheets/KVR32S22S6_8.pdf 2) Corsair Vengeance(CMSX8GX4M1A3200C22): https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories...M1A3200C22 3) Crucial CT8G4SFRA32A: https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct8g4sfra32a Thanks
I question the likelihood of any difference between these options, so opt for the most affordable choice. This approach has consistently functioned properly in my experience. As long as your RAM satisfies the required CAS latency and speed specifications, you should be fine—provided the manufacturer doesn’t restrict memory types. I purchased four 8GB DDR3L-1600 units from the lowest-priced Amazon listing available with Prime shipping (Silicon Power at that time), and they performed equally well to the older 4GB Micron variants.
This laptop features soldered RAM and expansion slots for additional upgrades. It seems to be a model that isn’t what you anticipated based on earlier discussions. The specifications indicate there are no slots and it isn’t designed for user modifications. Regardless, all components perform similarly in terms of speed. Choose the one that offers the best price. You’d likely be unaware of any noticeable differences, as they’re minimal—on the scale of nanoseconds.
It refers to the same model from the earlier post, but it's not the Ideapad 3 Slim version—it's the standard Ideapad 3. The issue is there isn’t a clear "ram upgrade" guide; instead, you have to remove the memory module manually, which isn’t included. Confusing, isn’t it?
It seems the Lenovo site only displayed the Slim version for Ideapad 3. The manual you mentioned is likely specific to your model. It appears you have one soldered onboard and another available slot—something unusual for a laptop. That's quite interesting, almost surprising.
