    The brand of RAM hardly matters IMO. That's why it's a waste of money to buy special gaming RAM and all that nonsense. There's no reason why the memory won't work, assuming you get the correct *type* (which you did).

    Angelic said it.

    TBH unless your name is Mandrake, and you love OC'ing and benchmarking, RAM just isn't the bottleneck of the laptop - sure the tighter timing may help, but the difference would be a few % give or take, it's not gonna to be worth it.

    Invest in something like SSD would yield far more obvious gains.
