Memory options Is this laptop available with the 16GB memory option? Since it is not user upgradeable later, it has to be ordered exactly as desired.

Unfortunately, you can only purchase the versions they sell online. I called Amazon.com Reps and confirmed they don't customized Macbook Pros.

I don't think we can upgrade since those are customized. I think Amazon will only carry the two general versions, not built to order editions.

You can not upgrade the memory in these laptops. You must order them directly from Apple.com with upgraded memory. The memory is soldered to the motherboard. These are not like past mac laptops where you just had a panel you unscrewed and upgraded memory or HDD.

The model I have listed under ttNB has 16GB of RAM. Check the descriptions well. Amazon did not have the exact model of my configuration. Everything is identical except for added extras, including the RAM.

I have one available with the 16 GB RAM and upgraded 768GB SSD Flash HD and the better processor

Yep, amazon only carries the generic versions. Dont think Bestbuy will do it either, I tried and they only carry the generic ones too. If you want 16gigs of ram you will have to order it from Apple.

Some users from Notebook Review and GenTech confirm it can be expanded to 16GB. http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus/677457-asus-n56vz-16gb-ram-thread-4.html

The memory on this model is _not_ upgradeable, it is soldered in. If you want that much RAM, I strongly recommend the Lenovo X1 Carbon as an alternative - I do not recommend the touch screen on that model unless you really, really want touch - the screen is not as good on the touch model.

Hi Dan, I think I answered this question elsewhere, but the laptop should support 16GB. I have the earlier version of this laptop (V5-171-6422) and upgraded it to 16GB with no issues. The Intel CPU specification declares support up to 32GB, but 16GB is the maximum for this device since there are only two memory slots. If there is a limitation of 8GB, it's either the OS (I'm running Linux), marketing, or deliberate neutering of the hardware (not sure why). --JT Review

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.

Yes, we did add extra ram...note the total memory cannot exceed 4megs . Hope this helps!

You can definitely upgrade it to 16GB.There are two pairs of ram card slots.one pair of slots is easy to get to and the other...Not so much, If you are confident in your computer dis-assembly and reassembly skillsthan you should be fine (But I believe it might void the warranty if you take your computer apart that much) Upgrading to 32GB which would be 4 X 8GB cards in the laptop.So to recap,It maxes at 32GB it's just hard to get to the last 2 slots.

That's a great question. Sadly, I rarely use a laptop long enough to expand the memory myself. I would imagine you can expand the memory like most laptops but I don't want to say it's for certain. I wish I could be more help. Currently, I do like the computer and it's working well!

I downloaded the manual from asus. There's no mention of a memory upgrade.XP will around for a few more years. Too many computers have XP for it to go away any time soon.

Yes, I scanned my laptop and it does have two slots that can have 8 GB each, so the Maximum RAM is 16 just as you are asking. I like this machine for the price range is excellent.

4GB RAM as listed here, manual indicates it's replaceable (only one SODIMM slot) with 8GB RAM. Not a trivial replacement for end-users. To clarify other answers, storage is 128GB M.2 SATA, upgradeable to 512GB.

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.

I found the information on the wrong memory I ordered. It is the same description as the one you are looking at with one exception; it is sold by a different company. Point out the error in the description to Amazon and they should give you a full refund including shipping. They did me. That is, if your computer is listed in the description.

Buddy, Yes it can be upgraded to a maximum of 16 gb as per the maximum specifications. However, practically I haven't tried. To best of my judgement I think it will support as HP must have done the bench marking or tests with maximum amount of RAM it can squeeze in.

max is 8 but if u want to update it is better to buy the laptop with 8 gb, because to update you have to open the down cover complete and its not so easy, besides if you open it you'll lose the warranty. the laptop runs good with 4 gb, I tested it using programs like photoshop and dreamweaver, but if u want 8gb my advice is to buy the pc with that amount of ram.

Mine came with 8GB. I recall it has two memory slots and is upgradeable to 16GB.
