Hi I am considering buying this laptop, but would like to know if it can be upgraded to 16 GB of RAM: CyberpowerPC FANGBOOK EVO HFX7-300 17.3-Inch Lap

Yes, I also add a SSD, actually, I dont think you need 16GB RAM, just my advice. :D I guess u can add two RAMs, cuz I dont remember how many slots it has(it is under the keyboard, if u need help to open keyboard, just ask me).The only one problem of dis laptop is system, but I install Windows 8. hmm...I like dis laptop. P.S. it is not too heavy.

It can be upgraded up to 32RAM, you might need to go through their web site to custom build. You can modify just about everything. You'd want to make sure cracking the case and doing it yourself would not void the warranty if you try that.

Yes has four RAM slots total and two hdd slots total leaving room for expansion. Can go up to 32gb I believe. Better investment would be an ssd though . . .

Shouldn't be a problem, just purchase another 8gb stick. Also agree with the other answer an ssd is a much better way to upgrade this notebook. I talk about this in my review. About the other answer though, he/she indicates two ram slots are in use. At least in mine it came with one 8gb stick instead of two 4gb sticks.

one more thing is do not listen dat 2 stars review, he must not a pro of laptop. It has a good fan, u can turn on it for few minutes, but it is a little bit loud, dont worry u dont need always turn on it. it works pretty well.

It appears that you can. I can't remember if there are 2 slots or just 1 for the RAM, but on some how-to videos I found on similar x51 models, you can upgrade to 16 gb.

Its is upgradable to 8.1. That's what Im using right now as I type. It will take up to 16GB of Ram at 1600Mhz. Ive never looked at the battery upgrade. Mine will run hard for a couple of hours on the stock battery or will get to the 6 hour mark surfing the net etc. You'll get about 3 -5 hours of Netflix or movie watching. You cannot upgrade the motherboard without MAJOR modifications.

Hi There, Yes I confirm that the laptop has 16 GB internal memory and 6 GB dedicated (not shared) graphics card memory.The description in the specification details is not right.you can see this also in the MSI site based on the exact model number Dominator-893 which basically indicate a specific setup of this laptop.All the best, Fowzi

It uses laptop form factor SO-DIMM RAM. It can be upgraded to 8GB, but you would have to removed the 4GB module and replace it with an 8GB. There is no second slot.

No. The memory is fixed on the motherboard and is not something that you can upgrade. 4GB RAM is all that it has and will ever have.

Yes it is, according to the specs listed on the HP website... However, it will take (800mhz) RAM also so I would go with that instead (Crucial 4GB Kit (2GBx2) DDR2 800MHz (PC2-6400) CL6 SODIMM 200-Pin Notebook Memory Modules CT2KIT25664AC800) it runs about $10 more but it's worth the extra few bucks for the increase in RAM speed... Good luck & enjoy the upgrade... RH

Hello.Im a software engineer, then I hope I could answer your question.... well I love this computer its the perfect balance between price and performance. Also about the ram memory, the msi laptops are easily to uncover and have 2 ram memory slots, (have only one with 8gb), then you could put another DDR3 laptop memory 8GB 1600MHZ to upgrade it to 16 gbs or buy other memory cards. You need to know that the ram's memories must be with the same frequency then please make sure if the laptop's ram memory have 1600 MHz the other one must have 1600MHz, if aren't the same the computer only use one.I'm sure that you'll love this computer, enjoy it!

goto this site up to 8 gigs on ram , vid card still checking http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/lenovo-h520s-2561-p/4507-3118_7-35587897.html

I don't. But if you are serious, you probably want to upgrade to 16GB of RAM and replace the hard drive with SSD. Also find a way to cool down this laptop (with a serious cooling pad, not toy cooling pad), so this super powerful i7 CPU can overclock itself automatically to its full potential. (otherwise it will throttle itself preventing overheat, if you reach around 87 degree C)I can confirm 16 GB of RAM and SSD will work for this laptop. I am not sure 32 GB of RAM though. Will try next year when the RAM cost goes down. :DGood luck shopping.

Check out this link: http://support.toshiba.com/support/staticContentDetail?contentId=3532440&isFromTOCLink=false Your laptop will support 16 GB of RAM, PC3-12800 DDR3-1600MHz is recommended. Doubling your RAM will increase the speed of your laptop and is probably the best "bang-for-your-buck" upgrade that you can do on a laptop short of buying a new one

Hi I'm not sure but normally you would need 2 8 gb of ram tis without adding anything outo get the 16, Most all laptops have only 2 slots for ram and you want to keep them Balanced. Now a days you can also use a lump drive or thumb drive to do this, I put a 64 gig thumb drive in and use it to boost my Ram.

Yes. I bought this model specifically because I didn't want to overpay for additional memory. I added this, right from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LDLV6S/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1; and it works fine. I think 8GB is the max, but you should confirm that. I did not pay attention to that because the laptop was for my grandson.

My computer has 8GB of ram but Im guessing that it can also come with 4 and then upgraded to 8. I would do two things. Contact the seller or buy the computer and hope that it comes with 8GB of ram. The computer works pretty good. The only gripe is the Microsoft software and it takes a while to figure out.

i have the ativ book 6 which is the beefier version this laptop and it is upgrade-able to up to 16Gb of DDR3 ONLY RAM.
