Hello everyone !

Can someone please suggest where can I procure 2 x 4GB DDR3 1333MHz SODIMMs to upgrade my Dell XPS 15 L501x' memory to 8GB ?

RAM is cheap now, but nowhere from theITWares, itDepot or Flipkart are they listing twin pack of SODIMM. Junglee.com has some, but damn AMAZON's shipping charges are deal breakers.



Thanks all...:cool:

Any problem in buying two packs of 4GB ?

if they are not matched exactly in their latencies, they might not work in Dual Channel mode, and even if they do, there will be cycle errors. Hence, Manufacturer matched modules are best bet.

You can go for two separate 4 gb modules , there will be no issues in running them in dual channel.
