Hello guys, I just wanted to ask if it's okay to upgrade my laptop memory, from 2GB to 6GB but with the same clock specs (DDR3 1066 MHz). However, I wanted to upgrade my RAM from 2GB to 8GB, however it has a different clock which is DDR3 1333 MHz. Because having a 4GB DDR3 1066 MHz costs more than 2 x 4GB DDR3 1333 MHz, however, according to ASUS Customer Service Representative. Therefore, if I run DDR3 1333 MHz SDRAM, the speed may be limited at 1066MHz, and that only means that the ram that I'm going to buy may not last longer than expected... so I really don't know what to do with my laptop. So... Any opinions? Here are my specs for the laptop I'm going to upgrade:
