RAM Upgrade Advice

Hey, I've got a Dell Latitude Laptop - Type 82H8 with 8GB of RAM.
The thing is, it runs out of memory sometimes, so it struggles to load websites or run heavy stuff like Adobe Premiere Pro.

Is there any way to check if it has one or two RAM slots without having to crack the case open?

There's only one RAM slot available.

Google hasn't really been much help on this one...

For the 15ITL6 82H8, there are at least twenty different configurations out there. If you take the specific part number, say 82H8006KSC, and plug it into https://psref.lenovo.com, everything should be laid out clearly for you. Generally speaking, these models usually come with 4 GB soldered directly to the board and then one 4GB SO-DIMM slot, making it a single-slot setup for DDR4-3200. You can typically max it out at 12 GB by swapping that 4 GB stick for an 8 GB one...

Usually, they come with 4 GB soldered on plus one 4GB SO-DIMM slot (just one slot total) using DDR4-3200. You can max it out at 12 GB if you swap that 4 GB stick for an 8 GB one.

gotcha, I'll look for an 8GB stick then. Does the brand actually matter for speed?
thinking about grabbing something from a local shop like Best Buy or Micro Center...

kind of like this:

Even though the official specs claim you can only max out at 12 GB, I've seen plenty of folks online confirming that if you pop a 16 GB stick in that slot, you'll actually hit 20 GB total... so really, just go with whatever fits your budget better. You could grab the 8 GB setup for $70 or just go big with 16 GB for $150 .
