FAQ about Asus UX50V RAM

How much RAM can I put in the UX50V?

Maximum is 4GB total. You've got 2 slots to work with, so that's 2x2GB sticks at most.

What type of memory does the UX50V use?

It takes DDR2 SODIMM - the smaller laptop memory sticks. Make sure you get DDR2, not DDR3 or anything newer.

What speed RAM should I get?

800MHz (PC2-6400) is what's recommended. The system might accept other speeds but 800MHz is the safe bet.

Can I mix different RAM sizes?

Yeah, you can do like 1GB + 2GB if you want. Just remember the total max is 4GB and both sticks need to be DDR2 SODIMM.

Do I need to replace both sticks?

Not necessarily. If you've already got one stick in there, you can just add another compatible one in the empty slot. Or replace what's there with bigger sticks.

Will faster RAM work?

It might physically fit and work, but it'll just run at 800MHz anyway. No point spending extra on faster DDR2.
