I seek to upgrade RAM from 12 to 64GB for deep learning, but remain uncertain about compatibility; this Quora thread suggests all's good as long as key specs of the new RAM match that of current RAM, whereas a manufacturer rep. informs my system's been "tested to work" with up to 32GB. Further, a Crucial test recommends only up to 32GB - but vast majority of its recommendations are its own products, so unsure about credibility there.
Below are my system specs vs. Crucial's 32GB recommendation specs vs. the seeked RAM's specs. All considered, is it 'unsafe' to upgrade to 64GB against manufacturer certification?
SYSTEM: ASUS ROG Strix GL702VSK, 12GB DDR4 2.4-MHz 1.2V (2 slots), i7-7700HQ 2.8 GHz
32GB Crucial: --DDR4 2.4-MHz PC4-19200, CL-17, 1.2V, Dual Ranked
64GB Mushkin: DDR4 2.4-MHz PC4-21300, CL-19, 1.2V, Dual Channel, SDRAM
Unsafe? No. Guaranteed to work? No. Unless ASUS tech support tells you it can recognize a 32GB module, I advise against spending cash money on buying any. – K7AAY – 2019-09-05T15:50:42.393
