Hi experts, Can you tell me if it's possible to have one
slot with 4GB DDR3 RAM and another with 8GB DDR3L RAM (same frequency)?
I think you should check your existing memory and see if it is DDR3L 1.35 V or DDR3 1.5 V. It will be written on the label on your memory.
It states that "you cannot put DDR3 in a DDR3L slot" because it can only operate at 1.5v and not 1.35v. It also states that you can put "DDR3L in a DDR3 slot" because DDR3L can operate at 1.35v and 1.5v.
