Crucial Memory Advisor wrong specifications on Acer TravelMate 7720

[ Edited ]

Hello,

 

The Memory Advisor lists the Acer TravelMate 7720 has sporting an AMD M690G. That is incorrect. Thus the recommended RAM is also incorrect seeing as the 7720 only supports DDR2 667MHz, and not 800MHz as is listed.

 

The correct chipset is the Intel GM965. You can see the notebook's specifications here.

Re: Crucial Memory Advisor wrong specifications on Acer TravelMate 7720

If you look up the TravelMate 7720 now you will notice the chipset is correct. Thank you for letting us know! :smileyhappy:

 

We list the DDR2-800 modules as well as the DDR2-667 because they clock down and will work in the laptop. Granted not at 800MHz, but since they do run the compatibility database lists them together with all other parts that will run in the laptop. I apologize for any confusion that might have caused.
