Pavilion dv6 entertainment pc: memory upgrade

Can I upgrade the memory in my dv6 - 6047cl from 8 to 16 GB?

Yes because it is an Intel processor:

Manual

p. 5

Of course, the question is why? 16 gigs is overkill for most people who use never totally 8 gigs. The money could be better spent on an SSD. But yes you can upgrade to the modules of 2 x concert 8 or 16 GB of DDR3-1333 SO-DIMM memory.

The manual tells how to make and references HP for the upgrade of memory.

  • HP Pavilion dv7t Entertainment PC Memory Upgrade Question

    Product name: HP Pavilion dv7t-2000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC

    PRODUCT # NB444AV

    OSOriginally installed: Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium

    Currently installed OS: Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium

    When I bought the laptop, HP included a "FREE upgrade to 4 GB DDR2 memory (2 Dimm) 2 GB DDR2 memory (2 Dimm) system system'. I don't check then. Now, when it is slow, I checked the memory installed by 'Start-> computer-> (right click)-> properties-> installed memory (RAM). It shows that 2 GB.

    I'm baffled why it shows only 2 GB of RAM now, when HP was supposed to install 4 GB. In any case, I would like to upgrade memory now.  I have referred to as "HP Pavilion dv7 Entertainment PC. Maintenance and Service Guide "."  He describes the memory Module as:

    Spare part number description
    Memory 2048 MB (1-DIMM 667 MHz, PC2-6400),: 480382-001
    Module memory 1024 MB (1-DIMM 667 MHz, PC2-6400),: 480381-001
    Module of 512 MB memory (1-DIMM 667 MHz, PC2-6400),: 480380-001

    My question: can I use a 4 GB Kit (2GBx2) DDR2 800 MHz (PC2-6400) SODIMM 200 pin notebook Modules memory in the crack avialable? Memory at 800 MHz won't be compatible with 667 MHZ memory?

    I can't install module memory 2 x 4 GB to 8 GB? Will it be recognized by the card mother/BIOS/Windows?

    Thank you for your expert advice.

    You are the very welcome.

    Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c01689926.PDF

    Please see Chapter 4, page 54.

    It seems to me that there are two memory slots (one almost on top of the other). Take a look at the illustration.

    This is why the memory in Chapter 1 specifications indicate that you can install up to 8 GB of memory (2 x 4 GB).

    You can install a single chip PC2-6400 4 GB and leave the one you have in there now.

    It comes to the module memory 4 GB good cheaper brand I could find.

  • Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC: I can pass on my HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC (memory, processor, graphics)

    My dv6 became very slow. I am running Windows 10 and now it takes 15-20 minutes to wake him up from his sleep and connect. Ive done a lot of cleanup and optimization, but nothing got better on that. It get very hot very quickly and the fan always seems to be at the top. I'm looking to try to upgrade the memory and perhaps the (quad-core) processor at least if possible, to see if the performance is going to do better. I can hardly do anything on this issue now because it takes too long! I have a 1 TB of HDD installed there a few years and who works well, but everyday navigation, products microsoft office and editing photo/video light from time to time are almost impossible! What memory and processors are compatible with my device that I could look in the upgrade? Any help is greatly appreciated! I'm new to upgrades of memory and others so I had a bit of a problem of the research/understand exactly what I would like to search! I will post the form below!

    You have a model dv6-3155dx. Here are your specs:

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docid=emr_na-c02548013

    Here is the Service Manual:

    Manual

    See p. 23. Your laptop has the CPU i3 - 370 M and UMA (Intel HD) video so, unfortunately, the processor is not extensible because it is soldered to the motherboard. Put video updated would also require the replacement of the motherboard. CPU upgrades are very difficult and rarely justify financially, in any case, but in your case is not possible at all unless you replace the motherboard, which is even more expensive and less be justified financially. The cost of high end motherboard and CPU and work, you might as well buy a new laptop.

    But all is not lost. The best upgrade, you can do is to install an SSD. You can also switch to 8 GB of RAM. An upgrade will be useful, together, they would be a game-changer.

    You would need 2 x 4 GB modules specified thus:

    Memory module (DDR3 PC3 - 10600 1333 MHz) - 4096 MB 599092-001

    https://www.Amazon.com/HP-VH641AT-4-GB-DDR3-PC3-10600/DP/B0030L3B8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8 & qid = 1472066313 & SR = 8-1 & Keywords = 599092-001

    This model is very, very picky about the memory and it must have 8 black blocks on the side, not 4. Also very intolerant of memory not specified in general. Remember that I bound will work. 'How to' on the manual p.60.

    SSDS are a little harder to choose (as many options) and what I need to know is your budget. I recommend at least a concert 500 class SSD and which will cost $120-160. Since you have 10 Windows, it would be easy to download the Microsoft recovery media directly and simply reinstall, then find the drivers and applications and migrate the data. The installation will be ignited automatically the first time that the computer is connected to the internet. You can also clone the existing content of the new SSD hard drive, but I do not recommend with a facility that is malfunctioning.

    We also probably discuss blowing dust and verification of thermal management in general. A laptop that suddenly becomes very slow, as you describe may have a hard drive problem, too. You need to run diagnostics on the hard drive and also just to check to see if it is full. Drops of performance as a rock if the hard disk reaches 90 percent and more capacity.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 6080 ep: update of HP Pavilion dv6 6080 ep memory

    Hello

    I own a HP Pavilion dv6 6080ep. It came with 4 GB of RAM and it has an intel processor i5. In order to do an upgrade of RAM I get Manual HP on memory full capacity. It is said that for this model, with the i5 processor it could go up to 16 GB of memory. When I searched for the spare part of HP, he said that both the 621569-001, the 4 GB and the 634091-001, for the 8 GB, should be replaced by 641369-001 and 670034-001. Let me stress to you that these replacements have slightly different form of the original. I searched among the brands of memory there, specifically Kingston and crucial that said for this model I can get 8GB in mind. I think sincerely lost now. The amount of memory can my laptop really gets and there is no record of RAM I should know about off?

    Thanks in advance,
    Paulo

    PS: I was planning on getting a tp of Kingston KVR1333D3S9 / 8G add to my original 4 GB. (for a total of 12 GB)

    This is max 16 GB of DDR3 - 1333 PC3 - 10600 SO-DIMM aka. DDR3-1600 will downclock at 1333, and that's what you're probably see. I'd get 2 identical modules and not mix and match old and more recent memory. You prefer the modules with 8 blocks of black memory on each side (low density) as the HPs like the better guy.

    This works, for example:

    http://www.Amazon.com/G-skill-204-pin-so-DIMM-laptop-F3-1600C11D-16GSL/DP/B00HHDUEDG/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&QID=1427144332&SR=8-14&keywords=DDR3-1600+so-DIMM

    Even though it says 1.35 volts it will work also to 1.5 volts if necessary. memory of 1.35 volts is a better product because they choose only the best RAM for low voltage memory chips.

  • Pavilion dv6-2010sa Notebook: RAM upgrade

    My HP Pavilion dv6 is really slow (especially when you use the internet with more than a couple of tabs open. I did a full audit of viruses, spyware, etc. - all clean. However, when I checked the system I have only 3 GB of RAM (2.75 usable).

    Increase the RAM would make a significant difference and if so what is the maximum I should buy (which would be effective)? It would also be very helpful if you can give advice if I should run extra RAM with what I already have or if I have to replace it. Finally, if you could tell me the name of the RAM should I buy and where can I buy it.

    Thanks in advance.

    Ben

    It will run up to 8 GB of RAM. This is the laptop DDR2-800 memory. This video shows the replacement of hard disk and memory so just pay attention to memory:

    https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=koynICXjbzI

    DDR2 is very expensive. Here's the manual for your dv6:

    Manual

    Here is the Kingston showing page guaranteed compatible RAM:

    http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP-Compaq/Pavilion-DV6-2010sa

    As you can see, 8 GB is well over $200. Personally, because I'm cheap, I would buy a single module of 2 gig and increase the total RAM of 4 GB or, to be sure it works with maximum efficiency, buy a 4 GB kit if you have 2 identical bars. A 4 GB kit is 'only' $ 56, and it is a reasonable investment. 4 concerts will be significantly better than 3. You might also think of a reinstallation of the operating system. Computers a naturally slow down with age that the registry fills up with junk. There are a few settings, you can clean up the start menu and other things less an OS reinstall.

    After updating my Pavilion dv6 Windows 7 64 - bit of Windows 10 64 - bits, the connection to the computer to update resulted in a machine stuck with white (gray) screen.
