kungfuu72 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I am about to upgrade my laptop memory from 1GB single channel to 2GB dual channel. My laptop is: ASUS F3JP-AP035C-A SO-DIMM 200-PIN CL-5 DDR2 667 1x1GB RAM standard The (general) question is: Would DDR2 667 5400 RAM be able to run in DDR2 667 5300 slots? I don't know whether the MOBO is 5300 or 5400. I heard that 5300/5400 only designates the theoritical bandwidth of the RAM. So only to say that 5400 is possibly capable of more bandwidth than 5300 - is DDR2 667 RAM regardless of the bandwidth designator compatible with the SLOT? There are few DDR2 667 5400 RAM sellers, and more DDR2 667 5300 - so I'm guessing that 5300 is more of the standard. Its a good guess to say that it would not be a good idea to MIX the two together. But to have one or the other in the same RAM slots....that is the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted November 20, 2007 Corsair Employees Share Posted November 20, 2007 PC-5300 would be DDR667 and PC-5400 would be DDR675 that is the difference, but most notebooks will run them at default DDR667 no matter what you put in, and I do not know of any PC-5400 Note Book Memory.

kungfuu72 Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 Well maybe I'm wrong but here is the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2030260381+1052910525+1309221137+1052607869+1052707870&Configurator=&Subcategory=381&description=&Ntk=&srchInDesc= That is the only thing that is tripping me up. It says DDR2 667 5400 SO-DIMM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
