Hi, my friend has an Asus X551MAV with a Celeron N2840 and 2 GB of ram and of course it is slow. I was thinking about increasing the ram to 4 GB. I saw a video about how to disassemble it because it's different from most laptops and it's got only one slot for the ram. It will support 4 GB of ram right? I'm pretty sure it does but I just want to make sure. CPU-Z in the "memory" tab says DDR3 2GB 666.7 while in "spd" says 1.35 volts. I guess it's DDR3L right? Can I use ram at 1600 mhz? It should still work at 1333, I can't find 1333 at 1.35 volts. Thanks!
 
Hi,

Here's what I got from ASUS support site about your laptop. It supports DDR3 1333/1066 Mhz SDRAM and you are correct it's upgradeable to 4GB.
