Dell latitude e5490 ram

Hi ☺️

I bought a used dell latitude e5490 

It has a i5 8350u processor and intel tells me it can use ddr4 - 2400 and ddr3 lpddr3 - 2133 ram 

My question i found some cheap ddr4 -2400t ram, can i use them ?

Sorry for any confusion im Danish so i might have a little trouble explaining

LPDDR3 won't work - that RAM is not socketed but soldered in.

2400T refers to a specific timing and speed that I suspect you will find will not work with your system.

You're always better off purchasing RAM that has been tested to work - Kingston, Crucial and others have memory configuration tools.  Use one of those to select RAM.

Hi

Try Crucial, Kingston, Mr Memory et al.

If the spec matches, buy whatever suits you.

@Biancaw 

yes, you can use DDR4 RAM with 2400 MHz.
Max Ram is 2 x 32 GB
RAM 2400MHz | Unbuffered | 1,2V
