IdeaPad S205 RAM/memory: maximum speed?

Hello

Lenovo customer service/tech support I asked this question several times, each to give me an answer to 1066 mhz.

What is the maximum SPEED for the RAM/memory usable by the S205 with AMD Fusion the E450 processor?

I understand 8G (2 slots of 4G) is the maximum capacity of ram.

But what is the maximum speed of the ram? I thought that the maximum allowance is 1 066 mhz due to the site, despite the AMD website, saying that the E450 can manage 1333 mhz.

Obviously, I want to max out my RAM. I went on the site of Kingston and used the option to locate specific RAM for this device and it gave rise to 1 066 mhz 2X4G sticks. So I bought and it just. I just want to come here and see if someone actually KNOWS what as the maximum speed capability (or anything else I should be aware of outside Gig capacity) which can take the S205 with AMD Fusion the E450.

EDIT:
In new research, I found the following.

(1) according to the support of crucial technology, the RAM frequency/speed is controlled by the processor CPU only. And as said by him, the AMD 300 and 350 have a maximum speed of control for the RAM of 1066 mhz. However the E450 has a 'controller memory integrated (up to 1333 MHz) DDR3"as seen go ( http://www.lenovo.com/shop/americas/content/pdf/system_data/s205_tech_specs.pdf ).

Also note that just below him, he goes on to say that the maximum speed for RAM is at 1066 mhz. Therefore, this disturbs more the issue. It seems to me that, when they are max memory capacity and speed, they forgot that the E450 can manage more of the E300 and E350 and simply serve their maximum speed of 1066.

I already went ahead and bought 2X4G 1066 RAM. Fortunately, I did not open them. But now it comes to ship to the company and having to order the good 1333 mhz RAM. Otherwise I use RAM that is slower than my full potential.

I advanced and called Lenovo and it brought to their attention. After the daughter of back and forth between 1066 and 1333, she decided at the end (of course assistance from their technical support level 2) 1333 is maximum for E450.

Conclusion:
It seems that if you have E450, you may have to 1333.

If you have E300 or 350, you can have 1066.

If anyone has confirmation, please tell.

If you go to the Lenovo support site and enter the serial number of your S205, if will give you a list of all the machine components (including the RAM module manufacturer, size, speed, etc.).

The manual indicates that the specification of RAM for my S205 1066.  By entering my serial number, I found that Lenovo had actually installed 1333 RAM in my system.  Then, when I added more RAM, I knew to add 1333 instead of 1066.

No, I didn't bother to check my actual speed of the RAM.

    I was playing with my Ideapad S205 last week and found a place that allow me to make some sort of memory/RAM Test. I can't find a reason any. I checked the BIOS and other startup options, but I can't find it. Does anyone know what I mean? Where to find it?

    Thank you.

    Hello!

    I currently have the Touchsmart from HP Envy 17-j153cl with a BIOS updated. The vehicle has currently 2x8GB sticks of RAM SoDIMM DDR3L strips - 1600 MHz. I was wondering what was the maximum speed of RAM supported by the BIOS. I'm hoping to upgrade to Kingston HyperX 2133 MHz SODIMM 2x8GB DDR3L, but I heard that if the laptop BIOS does not support the higher speed, it is just downclocked. So, I wanted to know if bios default HP on the 17 - j153cl can handle the speed of the potentially new RAM. Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    1. This permanently cancels the warranty. Are you sure that the machine allows to do this?
    2. I have some older posts to talk about RAM. I usually use the car for example. You can run a race car at high speed on a race track, not on normal/streets roads; especially on roads with speed limits.

  • I NEED TO KNOW IF A DELL E1705 CAN HAVE 4 GB OF RAM MEMORY

    I WANT the update LEVEL OF WINDOWS 7 BUT I NEED MORE RAM MEMORY for IT to WORK. MY OWNERS BOOK SAYS I CAN HAVE A MAXIMUM OF 4 GB OF RAM. IS THAT CORRECT? THEN I CAN INSTALL WINDOWS 7

    Yes, DELL E1705 recognizes 4 GB of RAM. You may need to update the BIOS (A09). 32 bit Windows 7 recognizes 4 GB, but usable is 3.25 GB. 64-bit Windows 7 will benefit from all 4GBs. Enjoy!

  • Windows 7 only recognizing 5 6 GB of RAM, WHY? ((Live RAM) memory installed: 6,00 (4.99 GB usable) GB)

    I just bought a Dell XPS 435MT (i7-920 2.6 GHz - 6 GB - Radeon Card w / 512Mb - blah blah) 2 months ago. A week ago I upgraded to Windows 7 through the "launch party". Win7 Ultimate x 64 installation went smoothly and the system works beautifully throughout; but only 5 of my 6 GB of RAM is just boring to me. I called Dell and they said since the PC sees the 6 GB there must be something with the operating system. so I called Microsoft and they my referred to 'Launch Party Support' I'm waiting on them for more information.

    At the same time I'm not going just to stop my research. It is said in the Sys Info. Installed memory (RAM live): 6,00 GB (4.99 GB usable)

    (Updated!)

    I did some research online, but couldn't find something solid...

    Until I started poking around in my own system, I tried a few diagnostics memory and updated my drivers the problem was still there. Then I found the "Resource monitor" tool (computer right click then click on manage) and on the memory tab, it shows all my memory and where it is... Go missing according to the tool is 'Reserved material' for the BIOS and drivers for other devices. My question is, is this normal? is it ok? can I change? What can I use it? just off the top of my head.

    Any help is very appreciated!

    It has an ati radeon xxxx (not sure) with 512 MB, I can get one with 1 GB if that helps, but I spent extra for the card already. :(

    I'll see what I can do in the BIOS. Thanks Tek

    I don't see "https://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/435MT/en/index.htm". Maybe I missed it. May you have better luck... Thank you

    Update:
    I went to run > msconfig > Startup tab > advanced options > and uncontrolled memory maximum fixed the problem! Hellz Yes!

    I have a Toshiba Satego x 200 - 21u.
    I often use the mode "Eve". I close the screen with a wink, and the next day I still.
    Sometimes the fan goes crazy. It runs with maximum speed, as if it was too hot.
    When I stopped (no restart) and turn it on again, everything is fine.

    Is there a problem with a driver?
    Is it lack of Microsoft?
    Or is it really too hot? Y at - it a tool that shows me the temperatures?

  • How to free up RAM memory in my macbook pro

    Hello

    How to free up RAM memory in my macbook pro

    In the current Mac OS x versions, Apple realized that the FREE RAM is not useful for anything whatsoever. What is needed is "instantly available RAM", and they began to be implemented in a number of ways. Free-ing RAM is no longer applicable.

    Some of your RAM may be used by an element called cache. These are copies of files read previously, in the hope that you will need to see again them soon. This RAM is said to be immediately available when an Application makes a request for the new RAM. In addition, little RAM is compressed. If it is referenced, Mac OS X can decompress a lot faster than to a new reading of the disc.

    The important point to look at the activity monitor is graphics memory. If it is not green, you may have to look more carefully at how you use your Mac and its RAM. The telltale signs that you need more are using PageOuts or Swap (but these counters start at zero at the start, so if you have worked for days, some will have invariably been used).

  • RAM memory

    Hello, I have the HP Pavilion dv6000 and my laptop has 3 GB of ram merory (2 GB + 1 GB), I want to replace my ram memory

    (1 GB) with memory G.skill  F2 - 5300CL5S - 2GBSK SO DIMM DDR2 667 mHz CL5... is this possible?

    Thank you

    Your model can accept 4 gigabytes of RAM. Yes the G.Skill will probably work, but you'd be 100% sure if you have tried to find another 2 gig module, like the one already in it.

  • IdeaPad S205 battery charge no problem

    Hello, I have a Lenovo IdeaPad S205 and met with some difficulties. The charger has recently stopped working and I bought a replacement - the original charger has a 20V power, whereas the replacement 19V power. However, I don't think it would make a difference. That being said, when I plugged in the charger, it says "plugged in, not load." I took the battery and put it again, in as I had a similar problem before, and making it fixed. The system remained on while the battery was out, and I noticed the battery percentage is not down while this replacement is plugged. In addition, the original now seems to do the same thing - "plugged in, not load." Can anyone offer any assistance?

    Hi Ben_R,

    It's weird. Can try you to:

    1 turn on the computer with just the AC adapter and loading Windows to the top, slide the battery and observe.

    2. turn off the machine with the inserted battery. When the machine is turned off, plug the AC adapter and see if the battery is charged.
