Micron Crucial 8Gb Single Ddr3/Ddr3L 1600 Mt/S (Pc3-12800) Unbuffered Sodimm 204-Pin Memory - Ct102464Bf160B

My Dell Inspiron 3542 which I got in 2015 with i3 4th gen, 4gb ddr3l ram, and 1TB HDD @5400rpm in it, on which I installed win 10 pro, was damn slow.It took almost 3-5 mins to boot up completely. Programs were very slow most of the time, and often got hanged or not responding.I got irritated by the sluggish performance and initially thought of going for a new pc with i5/i7 atleast 8th gen with 8gb ram, but they weren't in my budget currently due to other high expenditures in the past couple of months.Hence, I considered upgrading my lappy with this ram and also a Samsung Evo 860 256gb SSD.The peformance after the upgrade was astounding and way beyond my expectations. I was more than happy as every penny I spent was truly worth it. I just spent merely 5500/- in total and rescued myself of spending a hefty amount for upgrading to a new pc.Now this machine works like a charm. Its superfast, takes almost 3-5 sec to boot, 1-2 sec to shutdown. Applications launch superfast, no delay in response, or hanging of apps, even with multiple apps, and multiple windows & tabs in browsers opened up simultaneously.

It also works with hp pavilion 15 series but am using with hp 450.The ram performance is awesome!!i am using it in hp 450 business notebook pc which supports just 8gb of ram but has 2 slots , then i checked with the motherboard chipset and about my intel i3 2nd gen manufacturer website were it was mentioned than both processors and motherboard chipset can take up to 16gb ram so with the 1 x4gb which i had already in slot no.1 i replaced it with 8gb in slot 1 and 4gb in slot 2 with was best configuration according to the insyde motherboard company if 2x8 gb sticks not available then go for this type of upgrades...no issues till now works best no overheating problems and now am having total of 12gb ram which is more than enough for a multitasker. Always check manufacturer webpage and chipset version before any upgrades.

It is nicely working till now. i like its Speed, Multitasking and value for money.

Bought this Ram for Upgrading my HP-15 G009AX AMD A8 laptop from 4 GB to 8 GB. The laptop had only one ram slot so I had to take out the 4gb one and replace it with this Ram and it works perfectly. Post installation I ran the windows memory test and its passed without any errors.Anyone with same laptop as mine, be aware you will have to take out your Mother Board to install the Ram.Delivery was very quick I got the product in 2 days. Cost of this Ram was lowest among all online stores so cheers to Amazon!I know most people would know this but for folks who are new to Ram upgrades; google "Crucials Systesm Scan" it will tell you how many slots your laptop has, Maximum supported Ram by your system and it will give you some compatible Crucial Ram suggestions. Then by looking into the specifications of the suggested rams you can search online stores for ram with similar specs from other manufactures aswell.

Just got the product today was really happy. the product was wrapped with bubble wrap under plastic case. i installed ram in my dell inspiron 5559 laptop. After the installation my laptop did not started. It stuck in black screen & laptop charging indicator started gonna blink in white & orange light. I think its fault one product. when i put my old ram in laptop it started working. I’m gonna return this crucial ram to seller & will ask for replacement. 13/05/2024 Will update my feedback & rating after placement.Update - 15/05/2024Today morning again i tried to installation the ram. I read somewhere that i have to remove my cmos battery for sometime. I did that it worked. Ram is working now. I’m confused now should i return or not? Let’s see i will use it for 2-3 days. If i face any issue i will return this. The product is good. It increased my laptop speed. Now my photoshop is running very smoothly. Changing rating 1 star to 5 star.Thanks.Update - 24/05/2024RAM is working fine so far. no issues found. Guys if you want to purchase it you can go for it. But i will suggest you should prefer for shop visit rather than online. Because if you got any faulty product you’ll find difficulty for replacement. Even amazon company will not support you in this case.Update- 28/6/24Guys the RAM is stopped working. My laptop is not getting boot with this RAM. Whenever i try to on my laptop its showing white & orange light blinking. Causing same issue again which was stated in starting time. Don’t buy this RAM.
