FAQ about Acer Nitro AN515-54 RAM

How much RAM can I put in my Nitro AN515-54?

You can max it out at 64GB total. It has 2 memory slots, so you could do 32GB in each slot if you want to go all the way.

What type of RAM does the AN515-54 use?

It uses DDR4 SODIMM modules. SODIMM is the smaller laptop-style RAM, not the full-size desktop sticks.

What speed RAM should I get for this laptop?

The recommended speed is 2666MHz, which is also called PC4-21300. You can use faster RAM but it'll just run at 2666MHz anyway.

Can I mix different RAM sizes in the two slots?

Technically yes, but it's better to use matching sticks for optimal performance. If you mix sizes, you might not get dual-channel speeds on all your memory.

Do I need to replace both RAM sticks or can I just add one?

You can add just one stick if there's an empty slot, but check what's already installed first. For best performance, use two identical sticks to enable dual-channel mode.

Will slower RAM work if I can't find 2666MHz?

Yes, slower RAM like 2400MHz will work fine. The laptop will just run it at whatever speed the RAM is rated for. Faster RAM will get downclocked to 2666MHz.
