How does one make sure to order the correct memory, if even the manufactures have wrong product pictures and no description of their products?
The case is that I have a notebook with Intel HM55 chipset, which can only take 256Mx8bit memories.
Ordered some memory which turned out to be a 512Mx8bit memory. Had no chance to know beforehand.
It's quite astonishing that something as crucial as that is not somehow denoted.

Is this extremely subtle shilling?
>>51894699
No, I am not that smart.
So it was unintended shilling at best.
Anyways, some smartass should answer my question.
In before buy a new notebook herpderp.
>>51894699
crucial (micron) is pretty gud, and they're so beyond the point of needing to shill (just look at how many companies rebrand their shit), that paying neckbeards to post on image boards would be akin to burning money

put the model number in here, and it'll tell you exactly what memory you need

A bit pricey if you ask me...and they even don't tell you the brand of the memory you are ordering, neither any more information on the timings and whatever.

could you maybe run Speccy on the PC?
Also £30 for 8GB of DDR3 is great
>>51895004
Well, 70€ for me.
I guess this makes sense, because 256Mx8bit modules aren't produced anymore, and the 512Mx8bit modules cost less in the production.
>>51894595
is this true?
I'm going to buy 16GB of corsair vengeance 1600 out of the blue for my pavilion and I guess it's compatible

Just check your chipset of the motherboard.
If it is a HM55, as I said, it will only support max. 8GB, 4GB of 256Mx8bit each module.
I think any chipset produced afterwards supports any module.
>>51895202
it's AMD, FS1r2
I can't find the chipset but I guess if an a10 works, it should work with DDR3L?
