Hi,
Here's the lappy,
Used crucial scanner first and it threw a funny error :slap:

1703969857079.png
Acer is/was pretty useless as well on this and stated the obvious 2x16gb 5600GHz is the upgrade
But they do not sell it lol = okay

I looked around a little and messaged gskill about a couple kits I found of theirs off ducky

Garbage CL46 I have the same timings as this except 2x8gb instead of 2x16gb

CL40 I'd rather have this it is the lowest CL they offer
Not to bad of a deal on newegg either
I don't mind buying memory from them I've done it many times before.

Speed areas are totally blank not sure what is going on there WD memory integrity feature is off so nothing should be blocking info :/

Looks like acer used a gigabyte memory only thing that is noticeable on the hwinfo64 memory readout is the screaming chicken :laugh:

Bad thing about the two gskill kits is both state only Intel system :/

Hi,
Yeah that's only 4800c40 though so none at 5600Ghz
 
Time to get an intel laptop!... :D
 
Hi,
Damn that's almost funnier than the crucial scanner results :cool:

Won't find out anything from either until next year.
 
I'd just grab the Fury Impacts from Amazon @ $119:


BIOS should read the 5600/40 profile and be good to go. Worst case, just return the kit to Amazon. They take anything back. :laugh:
Hi,
Yeah that is true about amazon sold and shipped :cool:
The gskill on amazon was almost twice as much than on newegg plus third party... so I ruled that one out in favor for newegg.

Dang amazon dragging their feet on free delivery without business prime trial Jan-8th verses just free shipping Jan-11-16th lol
 
Hi,
lol
I love amazon and their free prime trial scareware to fast delivery hehe

Said free delivery 11-16th right
Just got an email shipped delivery on the 5th :roll:
 
Hi,
Well got the memory in and looks okay 32gb 5600c40 2x16gb :rockout:
Ran performance test 9 a few times and no crash :cool:

No dimm temp sensor so no idea how hot they are
Original had some heat shrink on them, new none.
