    Hi All,

    Quick question I hope. I have a Sandy Bridge i7 2630QM laptop that I need to buy some more RAM for (2X2GB >2X4GB).

    I had a look on the Crucial website, chose DELL > XPS >L502X and it recommended several sticks including
    Crucial 8GB Kit (2 x 4GB) DDR3L-1600 SODIMM as Compatible here.

    However, the DIMMs on the website specify 1.35volts compared to 1.5volts. Can I put a 1.35volt stick in to a 1.5v slot?

    Thanks!

    This laptop supports 8gb dimm so you can goto 16gb. Not sure about the voltage though.
