Crucial32GB DDR5 RAM Kit (2x16GB), 4800MHz CL40 Laptop Memory - Compatible with Intel 12th Gen and AMD Processors - CT2K16G48C40S5

This won’t be filled with a lot of benchmark test and superlative claims how well, or not so well, it works. The simple fact is that there is no way of knowing by reading other opinions how well, or not, it will work in your computer. Notice I said computer not laptop, although the form factor of this product is primarily designed for laptop use. In my case I have an HP Z2 G9 mini workstation that cost over four-thousand bucks but because RAM availability was restricted a couple of years ago because of the pandemic and the earthquakes mine came equipped with only a paltry 16MB and while I know the brand they used, it is not regarded as the best available.This one is a major upgrade for me and I utilized the Crucial product designator tool extensively. This was the only model they recommended but their title headline on the product page is terrible, it is not clear specifically what the product specs are. The online tool advises that I could use either 4800Mhz or 5600Mhz despite HP saying the maximum I can use is 4800. Reading numerous so-called technical reports lead me to believe the extra expense, though small, wasn’t worth it because there would probably be no performance bump an in fact some users experienced a degradation in performance. I opted to be safe and stay with 4800Mhz, I am not a gamer and for my applications (primarily photo and video editing) my software probably wasn’t going to benefit.FASTDid going for 16GB factory installed RAM to 64GB highly rated Crucial RAM make my computer screaming fast? There are some who would want you to believe that. No, I didn’t read my emails any faster, I didn’t type a letter to mom any faster, basically everything seemed exactly the same. But making a computer that operates basically in real time making it go faster isn’t what to expect. Gamers, which I’m not, have a different definition of fast though, which is fine, it doesn’t apply to me. Where making this pricey investment makes a difference to me as a content creator, video editor, graphic illustrator and professional photographer is making the various software associated with those tasks operate more efficiently or in some cases making the difference between even being able to use them or not.CAUTIONIf this is your first time upgrading RAM the best advice I can give you is to watch any videos online that are specific to your brand and model of computer. Mine being a mini workstation, which means it’s as powerful as a gigantic desktop computer but in a tiny physical form factor built around laptop technology, getting to the memory slots requires some disassembly and dexterity and be patient when you turn your computer on, don’t expect it to just boot up and be raring to go. Mine give me a single long beep and I went oh oh, then nothing happened, then I got three long beeps, then nothing. It took a minute or two for my BIOS to recognize the new RAM. Then everything was normal again.YES NO MAYBEThere is no answer to the question if this is a five or a zero star product, that will all be determined by what you install it in and how you use it. Benchmarks don’t answer that for me. Did I experience a blazing blast of speed or whatever? No, The differences were more subtle, but nevertheless tangible, enough to convince myself that it was finally time for me to feel justified in dropping a hundred and fifty bucks on this upgrade.

Its Awesome. My Acer Nitro V Gaming Laptop (ANV16-41-R5J0) comes with just 16 GB of RAM.I wanted more RAM so i maxed the laptop to 64GB.The Acer spec page says it only goes up to 32GB, but that's not completely true, it is capable of 64GB.64GB is overkill for most people uses, but....I love having a ton of web pages open, have multiple programs running at the same time and game dev on UnrealEngine. So for my purpose its worth it.The installation is easy if your technically savvy person, if not, there's a ton of youtube video on installation.

I've recently started replacing my big desktops with mini PCs. I bought this exact kit for all three of my minis;16gbx2 5600mhz. All three sets perform exceptionally well. When it comes to memory that just works, Crucial is my go-to. It's priced well and is king when it comes to compatibility. Couldn't be happier with this memory. Will choose Crucial again when I'm ready for 64gbs!

It was great to upgrade my old 16 GB memory on my acer predator ph18-71 with this 32 GB kit. The first launch, as people wrote on reddit, takes a long time during which it seems that the laptop is dead. But do not worry, just wait 5-10 minutes after pressing the power button. The following launches are already normal, seconds. I think I will buy it for the second laptop

I 'd forgotten that I bought the 96 GB module. I thought I'd ordered the 64 GB kit. I have more than enough memory for my needs. I am happy with my purchase.

No issues. Don’t recommend for just gaming though but if you’re using professional products buy it. Good quality and easy to install.

Great product. I found out that my system is limited to 4800Mhz but the increase from 16gb to 32gb was a nice increase of about 18% increase in speed. My Alienware M16 R1 w/ RTX 4070 (Laptop) cards pushing benchmarks just past a RTX 4060TI and right at an RX 7700 XT… that’s pretty incredible!
