FAQ about Asus X756UV RAM
How much RAM can I put in an Asus X756UV laptop?
You can install up to 32GB total. The laptop has 2 memory slots, so you could do 2x16GB sticks or any combination that doesn't exceed 32GB.
What type of RAM do I need for the X756UV?
You need DDR4 SODIMM modules. Make sure to get laptop memory (SODIMM), not desktop RAM - they're physically different sizes and won't fit.
What speed RAM should I get?
2133MHz (also labeled as PC4-17000) is the recommended speed. You can technically install faster RAM, but it'll just run at 2133MHz anyway, so no point paying extra for faster speeds.
Can I mix different RAM sizes in the two slots?
Yes, you can mix sizes like 8GB + 16GB, but for best performance, matching pairs (like 2x8GB or 2x16GB) enable dual-channel mode which gives better performance.
Do I need to remove existing RAM or can I just add more?
Depends what's already installed. If both slots are full, you'll need to remove at least one stick to upgrade. If there's an empty slot, you can just add another stick.
Will any DDR4 SODIMM work?
As long as it's DDR4 SODIMM at 2133MHz or higher, it should work. Just avoid DDR3 or DDR5 - they're not compatible and won't even fit in the slots.
