FAQ about Acer Aspire 3 A315-53-57WF RAM

How much RAM can I put in my Acer Aspire 3 A315-53-57WF?

Maximum is 20GB total. It's got just one memory slot, so whatever stick you put in there is all you get.

What type of RAM does this laptop use?

DDR4 SODIMM - that's the smaller laptop-sized memory stick. Make sure you don't accidentally buy regular desktop RAM.

What speed RAM should I get?

2666MHz is what works best with this model. You might see it listed as PC4-21300 - same thing, just different naming.

Can I add a second RAM stick?

Nope, only one slot in this model. Whatever's in there now has to come out when you upgrade.

Is it worth upgrading to 20GB?

If you're multitasking heavily or running memory-hungry programs, absolutely. Going from 4GB or 8GB to 20GB is a huge difference. Just remember you'll need to buy a single 20GB stick since there's only one slot.

Will faster RAM like 3200MHz work?

It'll probably work but will run at 2666MHz anyway. The system will downclock it to match what it supports, so save your money and just get 2666MHz.
