Windows 10: Upgrade Ram Question for Asus Tuf FX505DT Laptop

Hey guys I was trying to upgrade ram for my Asus Tuf FX505DT Laptop. I bought a (Samsung 8GB DDR4 2666MHz RAM Memory Module for Laptops (260 Pin SODIMM, 1.2V) M471A1K43CB1) off amazon.

I installed it and it still shows only 8gb. It is not picking it up. I was recommended this samsung ram piece from a friend who has the same laptop.

Is the 266mhz the problem? I noticed there is another option when buying the ram for 2400 mhz. I am very confused on what to do. Should I return it and buy another part? If so which one?


Updates:

-I checked the bios after putting in the ram. Only picks up the 8gb not the second one. I cannot find the dual-channel ram option in bios.

-The new 8gb ram stick actually works though, I put in by it self and it worked. Not sure what else to do though

-Also another update. I tried using the extra ram slot in my laptop with both ram sticks I have. My Laptop wouldn't boot up and only had a black screen. So I am guessing it has something to do with the ram slot? I am so confused ...

:)

 

Asus Tuf FX505DT Laptop Audio Bug - Windows Version:1903(18362.720)

I just bought this laptop a few days ago. It comes with a NVIDIA GTX 1650/AMD Radeon Vega 8 for gpus. It was working fine then today the laptop wasn't picking up my headphones when I plug them in. It shows Speakers (RealTek(R) audio) and nothing else. I go to sound settings and plug in my headphones nothing comes up. It shows NVIDIA High Definition Audio Not plugged in




I've tried uninstalling my gpu driver and reinstalling a older one. Did not work. Tried updating all drivers in device management and they are all up to date.

Please any help would be greatly appreciated.
