Hi all,

I have a Dell Inspiron 5420 purchased last year with the following config :

Intel Core i3 2370M
Dell motherboard
Samsung 2GB DDR3-SDRAM {Type : DDR3-SDRAM PC3-12800 (800 MHz) - [DDR3-1600]}
Windows 7 Basic

I want to upgrade my RAM to 4 GB. Can anyone please suggest which RAM to buy, and if possible links for buying online. I plan to buy another 2 GB stick and add it with the existing 2 GB.

Thanks and Regards,
Harsh Pranami

Bro, that RAM is rare as hell.Didn't find it on flipkart and snapdeal. It will be better if you consult with the local stores.

Here you go mate... looks like this one will work in dual channel though i am not sure if someone could just check. :)

Buy any DDR3 RAM, Corsair preferably, and it will work just fine.

actually, i was thinking that it would be better to invest in a ram which will make it dual channel
