My Toshiba X505 is a 4 year old laptop, but still holding strong. However, while using stuff like image and video processing RAM is often a problem.
I see a lot of thrashing happening with RAM usage touching 3800MB or so!

I am thinking of upgrading.
Now I have the 533MHz (1066 as its called) DDR3 RAM. CPU tools says its Samsung PC-8500F type of ram 2*2GB.

I read somewhere that I can use normal DDR3 1333 RAMS with some changes to bios settings.
Since PC-8500F is old it may not be available.

Any reliable sellers in Nehru place you can recommend.
I plan to buy 1*8GB+1*4GB. Is it okay. or I can only go 8GB or 16GB.

Some idea about cost also would be great!!
