    Hey guys, my computer has 4 slots for ram, currently two slots are filled with PC3-10600 1333mhz
    I want to add ram, do I need to use PC3-10600(1333mhz), or will PC3-10666(1333mhz) work?

    Both are the same. It's just sometimes they round the number up or down.
    Just make sure to purchase laptop RAM which is: 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM.
