Upgrade of RAM up to 8 GB - DELL Vostro 3700

Hello world!

I decided to upgrade my DELL Vostro 3700 with 4 GB of RAM up to 8. Is it feasible and technically possible to have 2 memory glue 4 GB each?

I read the manual, it is that I can use up to 4 GB in each slot. A year ago, I heard that DELL support does not recommend to have more than 2 GB in each slot. WHO KNOWS?

Hi Pholiant,

Dell Vostro 3700 has 2 SODIMM slots. The system accepts a memory of 1 GB, 2 GB and 4 GB capacity. The type of memory accepted either DDR3 1066 MHz DDR3 1333 MHz SODIMM only. The computer supports a maximum of 8 GB of memory when it is installed with two DIMMS to 4 GB.

  • Dell Vostro 3700

    I am running Dell Vostro Windows 8.0 Pro 34 bits on the machine, have upgraded memory up to 8 GB, however said that I need to run Windows 64 bit otherwise OS system 8.0 will use not the 8 GB.

    Tried installing the 64-bit version, but I get message "this custom app running on your PC", what can I do?

    Additional memory installation is due to the machine slows down, and SupportAssist indicates that the maximum memory of 8 GB is supported. Either way, I had the computer for more than 4 years and have been very happy with the performance.

    You cannot change to 64-bit without a complete new installation of 64-bit windows 8.1. More memory is not speed or solve problems. Look elsewhere to solve this problem. If you have a processor able to run 64-bit - not all Vostro can run that - and you have a record of 64-bit windows 8 dell, start it and install a custom. If boot you the disk installation and got this error, you cannot run 64-bit. See if you can return the extra memory or sell it.

    To check if you can run 64-bit, open the system page in Control Panel and see what he says. You are far behind the times by installing only not 8.1 free update. You could get a free upgrade to 32-bit windows after the 29 July 10 If you install the 8.1 update and that your computer is compatible.

  • freezing of Dell vostro 3700

    I have a dell vostro that I bought with a bad hard drive. After replacing the hard drive and install windows 7 on it, it started to freeze on me after that I installed the graphics drivers from Nvidia.

    I looked online and I thought it was an overheating issue. then I downloaded speedfan and the temperature was about 76-84

    so I bought the new thermal paste and clean everything inside the laptop.

    After completing the cleaning and put new thermal paste

    the should fell to 50-70, it worked fine for about 1 hour, after he began to freeze up again.

    then I uninstalled the Nvidia driver and the gel stopped.

    I did a bios update and installed all the drivers up to date

    I always have the same question.

    the temperature is about 46, and it freezes.

    When it freezes, I can't do anything. I can hear the fan speed,

    There are no beeps or lights.

    Thanks for the help guys I have set myself.

    It turns out that one of the rams is bad.

    After removing the bad memory stick live. The laptop had the same problem of freezing.

    After that some research it turns out that computer supports DDR3 1066 MHz or 1333 MHz SODIMM DDR3

    Type of ram.

    The bad stick was the original that I bought with which is DDR3 1333 MHz

    And the problem was that the second stick DDR3 12800 MHz.

    So after replace the two matched sticks of DDR3 1333 MHz he has worked for more than 5 hours without any problem. !

  • Upgrading Ram on Dell Vostro

    Hi have just purchased & equipped with 8 GB of ram in my Vostro 3700, but it will read only 2.93!  Make memory at the same speed, etc as the old ram (3 GB) 1 x 1 and 1 x 2 GB.  Are there settings in the Bios that it be changed or?

    Please I need help

    You can run the 32-bit version of Windows.  Open the control panel and then open 'system '.  If she says the 32-bit version of windows, then you will not be able to see all 8GB.  About 3.5 is as much as you would see.  With your video card integrated memories to share, that's why you see only 2.9ish.

    The good news is that this laptop can use the 64 bit version of windows.  the bad news is that you need to get somewhere and then install it.  If you choose to go this route, I recommend upgrading the disk for one ssd while your at it.  They don't cost much but can significantly upward from execution.  I got a Samsung EVO 850 in my sons of the 3700.  Makes a big difference.  More than when I put 8 GB of ram.

  • Upgrade processor or motherboard on Dell Vostro 230 Mini-Tower

    I have a Dell Vostro 230 Mini-Tower, and the vehicle currently has Intel Pentium E6500 processor. I would like to move on to something better, because my current processor does not meet the minimum requirements of some games I want to play. I was wondering what processor I could update? I know that the new processor has to adapt to the taking of the motherboard, but I don't know how to find out what socket has my current motherboard, or even what motherboard it is.

    I would also like to know, if I upgrade the processor, but instead get a new motherboard, can't I get a motherboard and plug and it will come with a new processor, or he will have to adapt my current processor? Upgrading the motherboard makes much difference to the speed of CPU if I don't actually pass the processor?

    I am running Windows SP3 & DirectX 11, with 4 GB of RAM, and I also have an ATI Radeon 5670 HD graphics card and a power of 300W.

    I have to get a new power supply if I upgraded the motherboard or processor?

  • Upgrade the RAM, I am lost in all the different attributes

    Hello

    I thought that the Ram is easy to choose, but it seems I was mistaken. I can't understand the different characteristics. Adding to the confusion is the search engines memory memory manufacturers.

    My system is Dell Inspiron 15R SE 7520.

    Kingston also compatible watch this model: KTD - L3C / 8G which works at 1.5V
    Crucial shows compatible like this: CT4522510, but it works at 1.35v

    In my system, I have 4 GB Hynix HMT351S6EFR8C, 1.5V.

    I would like to buy a 8GB module and add up so I have 12 GB. I don't care two-channel.

    The most common module with similar characteristics I can buy easily (without order from international stores) is Kingston KVR16S11/8.

    Can you please tell what should I do?

    Thank you

  • Upgrade the RAM to alienware X 51

    Hello

    I'm looking into upgrading the RAM in my alienware X 51, now I have 4 GB and I'm running 50% only at idle. I would get 8GB (2x4GB) but I'm having a hard time finding the RAM that will work for me. I looked at a few (links below), but not sure if they work?

    Links for RAM:

    Ok... I used utility upgrade crucial .com as well as live what dell sells and it seems that the X 51 uses memory ddr3 1600 nonECC 1.5V... it has 2 slots which can treat up to 16 GB... both the example you listed should work... you don't need ram with the stupid heat sinks , but it's not like they would be either in the way

  • Upgrade of RAM for Satellite Pro S300-11

    Hello
    I have this netbook for two years now and I need to add more memory RAM, it has 2 GB and is capable of having up to 8 GB.
    I went to two local stores to buy a memory stick, but they are not able to find my netbook to their suppliers, so that they have no idea what memory modules could go well with my pc. I know that the installed RAM module is a DDR2 at 800 MHz. So, any module of ram with these specifications should work correctly?
    Another question is if my computer is able to read up to 8 GB or I have to upgrade the BIOS (I have not updated, so I have one pre-installed).
    Thanks for your reply and sorry for my English!
    See you soon!

    Hi manelfera,

    The laptop has Intel GM45 chipset and the chipset supports up to 8 GB of memory. This means that you can install 4 GB module in both memory slots. As you already wrote DDR2 800 MHz is the correct specification.

    Theoretically, each module with this specification will work, but I recommend the purchase of high quality of Kingston for example modules. I have good experiences with this brand :)

    Updating the BIOS is not necessary for the upgrade of RAM so you can keep the current version.

  • Upgrade of RAM 550 d-105 NB

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba NB 550 d-105 netbook, and I want to upgrade the ram in it. I read that the restriction of 2 GB ram is only because of Windows Starter.

    Processor AMD C-50 supports 4 GB of RAM? If so, does that mean I close no start and change of normal Windows 32-bit OS or 64-bit?

    > I read ram 2 GB restriction is only because of Windows Starter

    Upgrade RAM depends on the chipset.
    Also 32 bits of the system supports max 3.2 GB of RAM if you want to use more RAM 4 GB, 8 GB, etc. then you must use a 64-bit system.

    Regarding the NB550D-105:
    As far as I know the 1 GB or 2 GB RAM (DDR3 1066 Mhz or 1333 Mhz) memory sticks can be installed.
    Some models could handle 1 GB or 2 GB modules (DDR2-800 and DDR3-1066 or 1333 Mhz DDR3)
