So in this picture, do you have 2 slots on the place we are looking at ? or is it 3 slots ? you can add a memory stick to there without opening the keyboard ?

Greetings gents.
I've been silently stalking this thread on information on the inner workings of upgrading the DDR3L on my G751JM. After reading here a bit, I need clarification on how the layout actually exists on the G751's.
Case in point, here's the HWInfo and the CPU-Z information in tandem of my system. You'll notice how the HWinfo claims ram slots #1 and #3 are being utilized, whereas the CPU-Z diagnostics claim it is slots #2 and #4. FWIW, I seem to be running 2x 4Gb (8Gb total,) of DDR3L in the non-user accessible area. Any clarification anyone would be happy to give me on how come I am seeing this discrepancy? Or am I reading to much into this? It is my end goal to upgrade all four SODIMMs' here in the near future (someone recommended G-Skillz RIpjaws earlier...) but if not, I want to make sure I leave myself a viable option in the user accessible area and that they all jive.
Post Edit: I am currently running Dual Channel per CPU-Z.
x7007 - yes, when you receive 24GB from the factory - there are two sticks "under the keyboard" and there is one stick installed (with the open slot) via the user-accessible area on the bottom of the laptop.
Happyllama - those are two empty slots under the bottom of your laptop's user-accessible area - so you can add another couple sticks to max out your RAM. ASUS installed your first two sticks under the keyboard from the factory - they're peaking out at you. 🙂

Hello,
I just received my G751JT-CH71. I want to upgrade from 16GB to 32GB. Using CPUZ. I determined the exact type of RAM I have: Samsung - 8192 MB (12800) (http://valid.canardpc.com/b5xlzq). On Amazon I see two matches for this type: http://tinyurl.com/o3h4etb and http://tinyurl.com/q4uoo7j Which one is correct, if any?
Thanks...
yorel, the reason your can't figure out which one to get is that you don't have specific enough info.
I don't understand why the online registered info for CPU-Z doesn't include the SPD tab info, but that is what you need - the part number of the memory, that exact number is what you need to find the correct memory.
For example, here is my SPD info:
That part number is what you use to search for what to purchase.

Hi, thanks.
Ok I found it: my memory chips are in slots 2 and 4, when I select #2 I see:
Found the chips on Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/q3dar5z
In the meantime I looked at the slots. I am not too sure how to insert the chips with my big clumsy fingers, and I am a software guy 😉 Any instructions somewhere?
Quick update RE: the memory - received it today. It didn't match the picture or description in the auction. 😞
It was HMT41GS6MFR8C-PB - a 1.5v stick. I contacted the seller and he does have the correct one (HMT41GS6AFR8A-PB) - so I'm returning the 1.5v one and he's going to send the 1.35v part. Probably delays me another week. Ah well.
BTW - it worked, but showed up at 1.5v. See below. Not worth the potential risk, especially at $60 a stick. It's in slot 3, as shown below.
