FAQ about Lenovo Legion Y7000P-1060 RAM
How much RAM can I put in my Legion Y7000P-1060?
Maximum is 32GB total. You've got 2 slots to work with, so that's 16GB per stick if you want to max it out.
What type of RAM do I need for this laptop?
You need DDR4 SODIMM sticks - that's the smaller laptop memory, not the full-size desktop RAM. Make sure it's SODIMM or it won't physically fit.
What speed RAM should I get?
2666MHz is the recommended speed (also labeled as PC4-21300). You can technically install faster RAM, but it'll just run at 2666MHz anyway, so save your money.
Can I mix different RAM sizes?
Yeah, you can do like 8GB + 16GB if you want 24GB total. Just know that mixing sizes means you lose dual-channel performance on part of your memory, so matching pairs work better.
Do I need to remove the existing RAM?
Depends what's already in there. If both slots are full and you want more capacity, then yes. If you've got one empty slot, just add to it. Check what you have first before ordering.
Is the RAM upgrade worth it?
If you're running out of memory during gaming or multitasking, absolutely. Going from 8GB to 16GB makes a huge difference. Beyond 16GB is mostly useful for video editing, running VMs, or heavy multitasking.
