Lefteris Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I want to upgrade my laptop's memory Acer travelmate 5740G with 2x4Gb. Can you tell me the difference between these two kits and if they are compatible with my laptop? CORSAIR CM3X8GSDKIT1066 SO-DIMM 8GB (2X4GB) PC3-8500 DUAL CHANNEL KIT and CORSAIR CMSA8GX3M2A1066C7 SO-DIMM 8GB (2X4GB) PC3-8500 DUAL CHANNEL KIT thanks!

Both ram have the same speeds but one is for mac (CMSA8GX3M2A1066C7) and the other (CM3X8GSDKIT1066) for dual channel Intel and AMD SODIMM platforms. But first use the memory finder to see which ones are compatible with your laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
