Another question.....since I have in one seemingly good 8gb stick of ram can I just add to it instead of taking it out and adding a kit? Could I like add a 16gb stick making it 24gb without creating issues?
Typically laptops only have one slot for a RAM stick, so you most likely need to take out the 8GB one and put in a bigger one. Look up the name of your laptop, there's most likely information on how many slots you have.
If there are more than one slot and it's empty, you can add more, like another 8GB or more. Check what kind of RAM you have right now (by simply looking at the label on it), not only the type (to fit the laptop) but the speed (MHz) and delay (CL). You want to match the speed and delay for best performance.
