FAQ about Acer Nitro AN515-51-55WL RAM

How much RAM can I put in this laptop?

You can go up to 32GB total - that's 16GB per slot since there are 2 slots.

What type of RAM do I need?

You need DDR4 SODIMM modules. Make sure it's SODIMM (the smaller laptop size), not regular desktop RAM.

What speed RAM should I get?

2400MHz is what's recommended. You might see it listed as PC4-19200 - same thing.

Can I mix different RAM sizes?

Yeah, you can do like 8GB + 16GB if you want. But matching sizes (like 8GB + 8GB) usually gives better performance.

Do I need to remove the old RAM?

Depends what's already in there. If both slots are full and you want more, you'll need to replace at least one stick.

Can I use faster RAM like 2666MHz or 3200MHz?

You can install it, but it'll just run at 2400MHz anyway. No point spending extra for speed you won't use.
