FAQ about Acer Nitro AN515-31 RAM
How many RAM slots does the Acer AN515-31 have?
It has 2 memory slots total. You can access both by removing the bottom panel.
What's the maximum RAM I can install?
32GB total - that's 16GB per slot. Most people find 16GB (2x8GB) plenty for gaming and multitasking though.
What type of RAM do I need to buy?
DDR4 SODIMM - the smaller laptop memory sticks, not the full-size desktop ones. Make sure you're getting SODIMM or it won't fit.
What speed RAM should I get?
2400MHz (also labeled as PC4-19200) is the recommended speed. You can install faster RAM but it'll just run at 2400MHz anyway, so save your money.
Can I mix different RAM sizes or brands?
Technically yes, but it's not ideal. For best performance, use matching pairs - same size, speed, and ideally same brand. Mixing can cause stability issues or slower speeds.
Do I need to upgrade both slots at once?
No, you can upgrade one at a time. But running dual channel (both slots filled) gives better performance, especially for gaming. If you have 1x8GB now, adding another 8GB stick is a solid upgrade.
