RAM upgrade on Dell Inspiron N5010

Hi venkat_bollineni,

This system model supports a maximum of 8GB memory. Memory modules must be installed as a perfectly matched pair to take advantage of the dual-channel memory bus. If not a matched pair, the system's memory bus operates in a single-channel configuration. Basically, when both DIMM connectors are populated, the system has optimum dual-channel performance unless channels A and B have different amounts of memory.

Revert for further queries.

Hi Sujatha,

Thanks you very much for quickly replying on my query.

Can you kindly throw some more light on this.

Do you mean, I should go for two same RAMs for both A and B slots?

As per the table, If I go for 4GB RAM in slot A and 2GB RAM in Slot B, I will get 6GB RAM (detectable and usable by O.S?). Else, I'll go for two 4GB RAMs for slot A and Slot B.

Also, can you kindly suggest me on the RAM maker as well, pls. After much Googling, I came to know that Kingston tends to work better than its counterparts.

1. Kingston ValueRAM DDR3 4 GB(64 x 512 MB) Laptop RAM (KVR1333D3S9/ KVR13S9S8/4) -

• 9-9-9 CAS Latency

(not specifically made for Dell, but one N5010 user specified that it worked for him along with his existing 2GB RAM)

2. Kingston DDR3 4 GB (1 x 4 GB) Dell Laptop RAM (KTD-L3C/4GFR) -

• 9-8-7-6 CAS Latency

(made specifically for Dell)

Can you suggest me on which would give me much performance out of two.

Many thanks in advance!!!

hello friend. I too have dell inspiron N5010 . When i tried to install 4 gb ram replacing 1 gb ram of actual 2+1  gb ram, my windows failed to load. It keeps on restarting. My system works fine with older ram. The ram I bought is of Kingston dell specified with flipkart :

Is this ram compatible with my device.
pls respond early so that I can make an informed decision.
when I run diagnostics test my system freezes and beeps when memory test (RAM) begins.
is this Ram faulty.??

Check the specs on the old RAM - is it 1.5V?  The new RAM is 1.35V, which should not be mixed with 1.5V RAM on the same board.

The N5010 may require 1.5V RAM - most newer systems will take either 1.5 or 1.35 (except many of the new Haswell systems, which require the 1.35V memory).

If you want to use Kingston RAM, use Dell-spec Kingston RAM (part numbers begin with KTD).  Crucial's RAM (purchased using its configurator) is also guaranteed to work.

ValueRAM - Kingston, Corsair, etc. -- is hit or miss. It's cheaper for a reason - it's not a consistent product.  It's whatever the company could purchase at low bid at any given point in time. You will get Best Result if need more help ask it.

O wow thats great for me. I hope this will be nice for me..
