Putting RAM in an Acer Aspire 5733z-4851

[Mike_51]

So I've recently decided to upgrade my laptop's memory/performance capabilities .

With that said my laptop specs are still stock...
I checked on crucial.com and it listed this as compatable
http/www.crucial.com/ProductDisplay?displayCompatibleLogo=1&urlRequestType=Base&catalogId=10151&productId=11829&externalPartNumber=CT5304877&urlLangId=-1&scanId=B7E9F73D31D926C3&langId=-1&storeId=10151

but instead I bought the Mushkin PC3L-128000 SODIMM 1.35V.
I went to go install it and my laptop didn't turn on. I immediately put back in the stock RAM.
So is that RAM Compatable or no??? Please help

Hi,

From the specification of your laptop it doesn't say if it would take PC3L (Low Voltage RAM) but it does say your laptop will take PC3 (Standard Voltage RAM). If I may suggest get the one from Crucial that is the same model with your laptops RAM you'll be way more sure with it or other brand that uses PC3 instead or PC3L.
