If you buy a external RAM card or go here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259184 you probably can. 8gb is the max for gaming anyways, so don't really seems you need more (at least if you are going to use this PC for gaming).

The motherboard on this laptop can only support 8GB of ram at the max, I currently have 8GB in my laptop at this moment

The ram can be updated to 4GB but only if you take it to a service center as the ram is soldered onto the motherboard

Mike,I have not upgraded mine but I believe it can be upgraded to 8GB. Here is a link to Crucial memory http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=7D87E7DAA5CA7304Keith

Hello Yen, Yes, you can upgrade it. However, the two RAM slots on the computer are filled with the original memory cards (two 512KB PC 5300 SO-DIMM). To upgrade it to 2GB, you have to remove the two original RAM cards and replace them with two 1GB cards. So, the cost to upgrade this computer includes (or can be offset by selling) the two original cards. I checked DealNews.com and they show this type of card selling at US$66 each and up. Note that if you buy the computer preconfigured with 2GB RAM directly from Apple that you will be charged an additional US$175. (This would include installation, but you would not have the two RAM cards to sell.) Hope this helps.

I would not recommend this computer for those uses. I did upgrade it to 8GB.

This pc has 4 slots for memory cards (pc2 - 6400, DDR2), so with 4 OF 4GB memory sticks each, it could be upgraded to 16gb.Thanks

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.

Yes I believe you can add more ram to it. I don't even use this computer anymore so I am unsure of what size ram it has but I have added ram to other computers before.

If you get the NB with 4GB of Ram can you upgrade to 6 or 8 by using the remaining slot?

You can upgrade the ram by replacing it--I've done that. In fact, I upgraded to 8gig. However, you actually take the top off and then work your way down from the top until you get to the ram. I used a Youtube video to walk me through it.

This model can support up to 16GB. There are two RAM slots, one is occupied by 1x8GB leaving a second one open for upgrade.

yes, a ram upgrade is feasible up to 8 gb. You can add another 2gb stick for about $20. Here's a good upgrade: Crucial 2GB Single DDR3 1600 MT/s (PC3-12800) CL11 SODIMM 204-Pin 1.35V/1.5V Notebook Memory Module CT25664BF160B

According to crucial.com this computer upgraded to 8 GB of RAM. There are four memory slots on the motherboard.

I believe you can. However, there is only one slot of ram and it is occupied with the 4GB dim so you can only replace it with a 8GB dim and that is the most this computer accepts.

You can expand your Ram to up to 16 GB, this Notebook carries DDR3 memory which comes in increments of 2, 4, 8. Which can be installed in two sticks.
