Hi!

I was just wondering, because I want to upgrade the 6GB ram in my laptop, Would I be able to basically "steal" ram from my old acer laptop, would I be able to put it into my samsung laptop?

Even if the RAM in your old Acer is compatible, you only have 2 slots in a laptop. You will have to remove a 2gb stick to make room for another, which would have to be a 4gb stick to do any good.

I am not sure how much ram is in my acer, I suspect its 4gb so it would just make 10gb,

Ok, so getting a bit off topic would it be able to actually upgrade my graphics driver from Intel to Nvidia?

If your Acer has 4gb, that would (most likely) be 2 sticks of 2gb ea. Since you would have to remove one 2gb stick from your Samsung to make room, there is no net gain.

fair enough, it was only my theory, I don't have a problem buying new Ram anyway
