FAQ about Lenovo V1070 RAM
How much RAM can I put in my V1070
Maximum is 16GB total. You've got 2 slots, so that's 8GB per slot max.
What kind of memory does the V1070 take
DDR3 SODIMM - the smaller laptop memory sticks. Not the full-size desktop ones.
What speed RAM should I get
1600MHz (also called PC3-12800). The system might accept other speeds but 1600MHz is what works best.
Can I mix different RAM sizes
Yeah you can do like 4GB + 8GB if you want. Just keep them both DDR3 1600MHz for best results.
Do I need to match RAM brands
Not really necessary. As long as they're both DDR3 SODIMM 1600MHz, different brands usually play nice together.
Will faster RAM like 1866MHz work
It'll probably work but just run at 1600MHz anyway. Save your money and stick with 1600MHz.
Can I use just one RAM stick
Sure, it'll work fine with just one stick. You lose dual-channel performance but for basic use you won't really notice.
