I noted the 1 GB ram. Does it affect video loading? I have a 10 inch from Lenovo (1 GB) and buffering is an issue.

I haven't had any issues buffering videos. In fact I haven't had any problems with anything regarding this tablet. Well worth the money, surprised it doesn't cost more

Yes, sorry to say, I think it might. I do not use it for movies but after you asked I tried Netflix and it didn't work very well at all. But it might be my connection speed.

I watch all my movies from my server to the Asus HD, no problem in buffering. After a good amount of research. I bought this and very satisfied with performance.
189357
played videos including hd ones and games and they work perfect. If you expect $600-tablet performance on the memo pad then you will not be satisfied, but for everyday and normal use this tablet is great.

So far I haven't streamed netflix so can't say for sure, but You Tube's not an issue so far - works ok.

4GB, but it won't matter. Ram amount won't matter if the video card or processor can't handle the 1080p signal getting sent to it. It's quality goes down before the video is even sent to the ram.

It does share the system memory with the video card so I think it automatically assigns memory for video from RAM. It does work with no problems for 20-20 design. Maybe ok for some lite autocad usage but i would definitely not use it for revit or some other package like that.

No, from what I read before purchasing, the memory is soldered to the motherboard. It's a great laptop, but honestly, if you NEED 8gigs, you should probably be looking into a different laptop anyway. I can't imagine anything you might use this laptop for anything that would require more ram given that the processor wouldn't really be suited best for those types of computer work.

As you get into the realm of high definition video you will definitely be pushing the limits of your computer. any details that you can provide regarding graphics card CPU etc. would help isolate the problem

Go with Adnan.... The 1gb must be typo ( or smomething ) You would have 4gb ( same as 4096 mb ) of dedicated ram for video card, just like ram for pc but just for card.

Hi Craig, Thanks for your useful input. At this stage I think I too should have gone for the 1TB model. Now I can't seem to download video clips onto the 1.5 TB. It starts off OK then freezes and the usual Task Manager solutions don't seem to help and I end up with the dreaded blue screen. I have to switch off and start again. Very boring. If anyone has a solution would be most grateful for help

I am not great with computers, but I will tell you that the CPU seems bogged down most of the time. I think editing videos with this laptop may be a slower process due to some of the lag. I think the laptop is a good idea for school, since that is what I use it for. I hope this helps a bit.

1GB effect as SLI does not double the usable memory (has to mirror between both GPUs data wise) and it is the 256bit. As for tested or working just ask the seller and if ripped file a claim.

I run Windows7 and have not had a problem. As to if it will take more Ram ask Acer

I added 4Gb SODIMM as offered in this ad It is Crucial RAM As I remember. It has been completely satisfactory. I doubt it is warranted by Lenovo, but continues error-freeing on RAM checks. I doubt that Lenove manufactures or even runs pre-installation checks on their factory- installed RAM.

YES and it performs much better with the additional memory. You HAVE TO be comfortable taking computer equipment apart to install the single RAM 2gb chip. The socket is on the bottom of the computer and you have to come at it from the top of the laptop through the keyboard. You have to take screws out, unsnap the case, disconnect the daughter board ribbon cable, and rock the entire motherboard up to access the 1gb chip. Take it out and replace with the 2gb chip. I did this on all 3 of the 1025c's I bought (2 white and 1 black). Easy if you are familiar in this area. I found the mem chips for about $9 ea.

The laptop has 2 ram slots, i just put in mine 2x4gb crucial memories and works like a charm, before i had only the 4 gb original hynix memory in it. Also you have 2 hdd drive bays which is a rare thing into a laptop especially at this price so you can easily put in a ssd drive to speed up the system. @Lemas I don't know what problems are you experiencing but I had 0 problems with it I used windows 8 and i just upgraded to 8.1 without any problems and i am using it for more than 6 months now and is my main work laptop so it runs almost 24h/day.@Rudy yeah having a big touch pad you can easily move the cursor around so i suggest you use a mouse and shutdown the touch using FN+F7 keys.

I asked my brother, a computer geek and a doctor, and he said 1G is more than enough RAM. He also asked me how often I use a bluetooth for anything now and the answer is never. Every month there are new computer specs and better equipment coming out so I will never have it all. I think I worry about making a mistake and not trusting my own decisions. Did you get yours yet?

I have no issues. But I upgraded the ram to the 16gb max. My son and wife has the same laptop with the factory 8gb and they have no issues with running multiple programs running.

I am not home at the moment, am out of town, so I cannot look at documentation. But from experience from buying ram, I would say this ram is unbuffered because of it's price point. Buffered ram is much more expensive than unbuffered ram. I've never been able to justify the cost. I have never had any problems with unbuffered ram. That being said, I don't run mission critical software. I run financial, music and photo editing software mostly. Donna

add some more ram and it will no problem, there is an empty slot. It comes with 1 4gb ram. The video is shared with onboard ram.
