Only one ram slot in my laptop can i add another slot without change mother board.i have two ram but in my laptop only single ram slot please suggest how to add both ram in my laptop or suggest. To expand on the slots filled vs performance, Dual channel RAM needs two slots filled (they are normally colour coded pairs, but the order of the slots can vary by manufacturer), So adding two sticks of RAM to the wrong slots will give you the capacity you fitted, but the RAM will only run in Single channel mode (a lower performance than Dual.
- In Linux, these modules are supported by OpenRGB. It can control all of the modes that this RAM supports, just like iCue in Windows. This particular kit is not RAM, but it offers identical lighting to the Corsair Pro RGB RAM to fill in those empty slots with more vibrant color.
- No you dont have to fill all slots. Usually its the Gray slots you have to fill for dual channel memory to work (Check your MOBO manual to make sure of the positioning.).

Hi Guys,
I've got an Asus P5B Deluxe motherboard. Today I tried adding some new RAM to take it from 4GB to 8GB. The board is about 6 years' old. I've never used the black RAM slots before, only the yellow ones (2x2GB in slots 1 and 3).
My system only sees 6GB, not 8GB. I've tried various combinations of the RAM, get the same result.
To check the new RAM wasn't defective, I tried it in slot 1, a known good slot. All 4 sticks of RAM worked in slot 1, so the RAM wasn't faulty.
All 4 sticks work in every slot except slot 2 (the first black RAM slot). If I put any stick in slot 2 - old or new - the PC is dead, it won't even boot to the BIOS.
So it looks like I have a defective RAM slot.
Does anyone know of any way to fix this? The board is too old to RMA. I've tried an emery board down the defective slot, and I've tried squirting WD40 down it. No improvement.
Does anyone have any other ideas on how to get that bad slot working?
Thanks!
