WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN BUYING MEMORY
One of the quickest and easiest ways to identify the right memory modules and expansion options for your computer is to use a memory configurator. Like a number of the other major memory manufacturers, Kingston has a memory configurator you can access via the link at the bottom of this page.

The most important thing to ensure when buying memory is compatibility with your system. In addition, you'll need to decide how much memory you need and beyond that lie considerations of price, quality, availability, service and warranty. 

We suggest you consider the following questions...

·      How much memory do I need?

·      How much memory will my system recognise?

·      What kind of memory is compatible with my system?

·      How many sockets are open and how should I fill them?

·      How do I determine the quality of memory?

·      What should I know about memory prices?

·      What other issues should I consider?

·      Compatibility

As already discussed, compatibility of memory components with your computer system is arguably the most important factor to consider when upgrading memory.

WHAT KIND OF MEMORY IS COMPATIBLE WITH MY SYSTEM?
The easiest way to determine what type of memory goes with your system is to consult with your system documentation. If you need further assistance, consult a memory configurator, such as the Kingston one. With Kingston's configurator, you can search by five different criteria:

·      System manufacturer/model

·      Computer model name

·      Memory module part number (Kingston, distributor, manufacturer)

·      Specification

·      Generic memory
