Windows 10: Ram 4 slot Question

I already have 2 x 8 gb ram and speed is 3000 mhz and i can overclock it to 2800 mhz two ram without issues.

I Just bought another 2 x 8gb ram same model same speed.

But if i insert 4 all ram i cannot run it on 2800mhz. it always reset to default 2133mhz.

Already cleared CMOS jumper.

I even tried my 2 new ram inserting it without my 2 other old ram and it works fine on 2800mhz.

I have the latest Bios on my motherboard.


Could be 4 ram same model and speed has issues if inserted 4 slot vs 2 slot only?

Ram slot

Greetings my friend. Like 'Mike P', my dell has only two slots as well. There are several laptops that have four (4) ram slots. Lenovo, ASUS, some HP's and some dell's. I would suggest going to a website like newegg.com, or other computer accessory place,
and looking at their memory/ram selections. Reading their details should provide some insight as to the number of slots.

Of course, if your budget allows, the more ram you have, the better the laptop will be.

I hope this helps.

Ram slot

Hi,

I upgraded my pc ram to 8gb. When i opened the panel and checked the ram slot i saw just two and task manager is showing 4 slots. Is this right?
