Hi

I want to upgrade my RAM to 16 GB

I now have one 8GB slot on my computer
Kingston 8 Giga 204-DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800)

I wonder if I can use other brand like
Patriot Memory 8 GB 204-DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Laptop Memory Model PSD38G16002S
https://www.newegg.com/global/sa-en/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220656

Is it fit for my computer?
Or I will have a problem with voltage and some other things

Would you recommend another product?

Thank you

it should fit, but Its better if you get another DDR3L sodimm RAM rather than standard DDR3 sodimm

it will fit but, your G20AJ will still read and run the ram at 1600mhz, not 1866mhz

this mean the maximum speed can i get for my ram is 1600MHz

Thank you for the new information

you might have to remove your cpu cooler, so buy your some spare descent thermal paste for the cpu, you might get to both slots but its just incase
