My IT provider is convincing me there is no difference between a 2Rx4 and a 2Rx8 RAM. A little
digging aroundinformed me that x4 means 4 bits on a chip vs x8 means 8 bits. Which is good, but what difference does that make?
What else can I help you with?
Which is better 2rx8 or 2rx4 memory?
2rx4 is better
Can you mix 2Rx8 and 1Rx8 RAM?
Yes, you can mix 2Rx8 and 1Rx8 RAM modules, but there are some considerations. The system will typically run both modules at the speed of the slower one, and the total available memory will be reduced if the modules are of different capacities. Additionally, using RAM from the same manufacturer and with similar specifications is recommended to ensure compatibility and stability. Always check your motherboard's specifications for supported configurations.

What ram is compatible in a compaq cq58-261sa I want to upgrade the ram from 4gb to 8gb but I don't know what ram to use can I use different ram or does it need to be the same as the one in it?
The ram already in it is a micron 4gb 2rx8 PC3L-12800s-11-11-FP MT16KTF51264HZ-1G6M1
What is 2Rx8 PC2-5300S in memory terms?
2r is corresponding to a "duel rank" module as opposed to 1r "single rank". x8 (by 8) configuration is corresponding to the industry standard low density memory configuration. If the module was listed as a 1rx4 it would be corresponding to a "single rank" x4 (by 4) high density module. 5300 is corresponding to the speed of the module itself. PC2-5300 or PC5300 both correspond to the speed, which in this cause is a 667Mhz module. If it were a PC4200 it would be 533Mhz, PC6400 is 800Mhz. PC2 is corresponding to how the manufacturer labels the product. PC2 translate to a DDR2 module, however you will find DDR2 module labeled both PC2 and PC, it depends on the manufacturer/seller. The reason for this is because DDR memory maxes out at a PC3200 speed (however there are also DDR2 PC3200 speed so you have to watch for that). If a module is listed as PC4200 and up it is a DDR2 module and having the "PC2" labeling is unnecessary, as they will always be DDR2. 5300S: The S does stand for "SODIMM" memory which is notebook RAM. If you saw a module that was PC5300U, the U would stand for "unbuffered" memory. There are various others like "FB" (Fully Buffered), "R" (registered) etc.
