I was just aligning the notches. They only fit one way. Usually they put the labels on the ram the same way but the notches are switched on each side. If you look at my other laptop video with another ram video it’s the same thing. Each ram is installed but on label is a different side up than the other ram slot if that makes sense. I wouldn’t worry about the label just make sure you have the ram notch aligned correctly. Don’t force it, but you will see as ram only fits in one way in each slot

The "opening voids warranty" is a scam that companies do, that goes back before the vcrs. companies that offer a warranty are held to a legal standard. In court they'd have to prove you damaged your device by opening it. They cannot punish you for doing repairs or compatible upgrades to the system. (Not saying it doesn't happen but saying it's not lawful.)

No problem. I just happened to be online. LOL plenty of questions about this laptop. I did a video running fortnite and some games. I tested CS go, fortnite, starcraft 2, and ultimate chicken horse. Bottom line this thing is not a gaming laptop . It will run it, but definitely below 30 fps at 1366x768 resolution. Pretty fun, but dang fornite really ran the fan on this laptop. I don't think I would game too much on this. Looking at the specs no way this laptop can run dead by deadlight. You might be able to run the other games but it would have below 30 fps for sure.

hold down ctrl+alt+delete then click "performance" tab. Select "GPU" on the bottom. Scroll all the way down to view your dedicated GPU memory and shared GPU memory. also you might have to research your motherboard and cpu to see what ram upgrades are available. I'm sure there are youtube videos out there.
