srry about the unrelated questions, but the price for thses RAM has increased alot? should i wasit for prices to come down or will it rise even more?

The price of RAM ramp up at least double since last year due to the fact DDR4 is coming out. It won't drop until the DDR4 is actually on the market.

Prices are nearly double what they were. There has been mention from a few RAM manufacturers stating decreased prices soon, and I have noticed a slight dip already. DDR4 is around the corner, so they should start dropping then - at least, I would assume.

Depends on your needs, amigo. Are you looking for the least expensive equivalent? Are you looking to use the same amount you paid originally for the next best?If you have the funds, the Radeon R9 290X is still capable of running all the latest on max settings. The ~$600 I paid for it 2 years ago was a good slurge for my rig, but you can get them for sub-$300 nowadays. I'd suggest sticking with DDR5, look for 3-4GB, and stick with a reputable make so that you don't burn out another card. If you just want to replace this 1GB DDR5, you have a multitude of inexpensive options. If you have 2 x16 PCI-E slots in your MoBo, you can crossfire or SLI for 4GB DDR5 with 2 2GB cards that support it. Depends on your needs, amigo. Are you looking for the least expensive equivalent?

Is it possible you sell it with the full memory RAM instead 4GB? How much cost this xtra memory?

It's definitely overpriced. Buyers shouldn't reward sellers who gouge. As it were, Best Buy online currently has the 16gb model for sale at the MSRP of $399. Why anyone would may this kind of markup is beyond me. ASUS will be ramping up production soon enough to meet demand. A little patience will save a significant chunk of change.

sorry, won't go... changing the power supply is gonna be a must. That small amount of power would be hard pressed to even run expanded memory options well.

Yes, you are missing thing - dual channel mode for the memory access. Just google for "Single memory vs dual channel". You may get in average 10-20% performance boost but if you decide to upgrade kit, you cant simply add new RAM, as both slots are used by kit.

Eager to know if works! I too am thinking of expanding. If it does work, please share the Ram manufacturer and specs. Thanks.

both are good choices, they make up for with 4GB excellent times 4 4 4 2, if your motherboard supports 8GB, it would be better to take advantage to the fullest !!!

Excaliber, and the other vendors, have also been monkeying with prices. I'll wait until Amazon, Newegg, and/or Best Buy get stock in. Any problems will be RMA'd faster.

I think that you should take the best value i.e. performance to money. I have taken the Crucial RAM & mSATA SSD components. Please note the RAM should be Low Power DDR3L i.e. operates on 1.35V.

update: my ram arrived today (thank you amazon prime!) and i'm running memtest on it right now. 16GB sure takes a while :-)

I learned the hard way that RAM is very system dependent. I really don't know if it will work with your computer or not, so I would suggest before buying, check with the vendor you'll be purchasing from. They'll be happy to tell you if will work or not because it saves both you and them the hassle of returning. My particular order was from a company called "NEMIX RAM" and there was absolutely no additional charge and the refund was very quick and courteous.

The higher RAM's memory the better. 4G is good enough however as you are planning to use Photoshop and Illustrator it would be a good idea to increase up to 8G so you can have an ideal performance. If you can afford 8G you should go with this option. RAM to a PC is like oxygen to a sportsman...

Seems a little low in my opinion but computer part prices flux alot so its hard to tell. I would contact the seller with concerns. Worse case scenario you file a complaint. However this is a offordanle motherboard I picked up mine refurbished for $108. Hope this helps, I myself would take the risk.
