FAQ about Asus U50F RAM
How much RAM can I put in my U50F laptop?
Maximum is 4GB total. You've got 2 slots to work with, so that's 2GB per slot max.
What type of memory do I need for the U50F?
You need DDR3 SODIMM modules - the laptop-sized ones, not desktop RAM. Make sure it's DDR3, not DDR2 or DDR4.
What speed RAM should I get?
1066MHz (also labeled as PC3-8500) is what's recommended. Faster RAM will work but will just run at 1066MHz anyway, so no point spending extra.
Can I mix different RAM sizes?
Yeah, you can do like 1GB + 2GB if you want. Just remember the total can't exceed 4GB. Both sticks should ideally be the same speed though.
Will faster RAM like 1333MHz work?
It'll work fine, just runs at the slower 1066MHz speed. The laptop automatically downgrades it. Save money and stick with 1066MHz.
Do I need to match the existing RAM exactly?
Not really - just needs to be DDR3 SODIMM. Different brands are fine. Matching speeds helps avoid any weird issues though.
