Synthohol Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 sorry, no. Corsair along with most mfgs do not support combining/mixing ram. too unpredictable. see the 2 links below in my sig for an explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 12, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 12, 2013 If your system is not listed on our memory finder then I would check with the OEM of your system to be sure it will support 8.0 Gig modules. The Chipset and CPU should support it but the system manufacturer may not have included BIOS support for higher density memory modules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvinstone Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 my system is listed on memory finder its dell inspiron n5110 and it showed me 2 results one is 4 gig and other was 2x4 gig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 12, 2013 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 12, 2013 That is exactly my point as you listed one of the parts as a single 8.0 Gig module (CMSX8GX3M1A1600C10) which may not be compatible with your system...

Administrators Technobeard Posted February 13, 2013 Administrators Share Posted February 13, 2013 IIRC it should be 512Mx8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
