FAQ about Acer Nitro AN515-51-70V4 RAM

What kind of RAM does my AN515-51-70V4 use?

It uses DDR4 SODIMM memory - the smaller laptop-sized modules, not the bigger desktop ones. Make sure to get SODIMM, not regular DIMM.

How much RAM can I put in this laptop?

Maximum is 32GB total. Since there are 2 slots, that means either 2x16GB sticks or keeping one original stick and adding another.

What speed RAM should I get?

2400MHz is the recommended speed. It'll show up as PC4-19200 on some listings - same thing. Faster RAM will work but will just run at 2400MHz anyway.

Can I mix different RAM sizes?

Yeah, you can do like 8GB + 16GB for 24GB total. But matching pairs (like 8+8 or 16+16) run in dual channel mode which is a bit faster.

Do I need to remove the old RAM?

Depends on what's already in there. If it came with 1x8GB and you want 16GB total, just add another 8GB stick. If both slots are full, you'll need to replace at least one.

Will any DDR4 SODIMM work?

As long as it's DDR4 SODIMM, it should work. Don't need anything special - standard voltage (1.2V) modules are fine. Just avoid DDR3 or DDR5 - won't fit.
