Need Help to buy Ram

[richardgoh]

Hi Gurus,

Are the rams in the pic below the same?
I need to buy more of the top one.
Will appreciate any advise.
Thanks

Both of the RAM sticks are DDR3 low voltage RAMs. What system will these RAMs be used in?

Does the motherboard have 4 ram slot?

If yes, maybe you have inserted into the wrong ram slot.
You can only use specific ram slot for inserting 2 rams. You must read the motherboard's manual.

Erm, the Hynix one is actually a 2GB stick. The Kingston one is then a 4GB stick. Which of these RAMs are the new one?
