Does the 2 pak mean that you get 8 - 2gig sticks?

I did a friend a favor some time ago, I purchase the memory and installed it.I believe it was (2 GB sticks) 8 GB total.

The GB's determine the storage capacity, not the size of the card itself. The cards are the same size, but 2GB holds more than the 1GB.

1 stick with 2GB. I actually got two sticks for 4GB in total to update my laptop. I've had no issues so far.

Sorry, not sure what you're asking. My two sticks seem to be working just fine.

Although it states "2 pak", I would doubt it. I bought a 20 pack @ 31.51 ea. in March of this year, and the price just doesn't go down.

You order memory in pairs. when it says 8GB (2x4GB) it means a total or 8 GB (consisting of 2 pieces, called "sticks", of 4GB each). Depending on his system, he probably only has two slots and if you order two of the 4GB (2x2GB) you will get four pieces. You need to make sure that you order exactly what is asked for 8Gb total (consisting of 2 pieces of 4GB memory).

I don't think they've officially said one way or the other yet. I strongly suspect it'll be possible, because it seems like there are 2 RAM slots available and you should be able to pop in a second 2GB stick if you really want, but you'll probably have to wait until these are officially released to find out how easy or difficult that'll be in practice.

If you are asking something akin to performance with a single 8 gig stick versus two 4 gig sticks, it shouldn't really matter. You could do a general Google search on the subject to see if there are any numbers out there at all, but the only way to know if the DS81 differs in any meaningful way from the average machine would be specific testing. I doubt that any has been done.

yes 1gig is correct and pretty common, these will take up to 4gig. 4mb is really old.

Hi Christian!! Greetings from Caracas,Venezuela. To answer your question: there are 2x4GB installed. So you will be able to put 2X8GB =16GB.

Got one soldered slot with 4gb stick and one that can be upgraded up to 8gb (in that slot), with 12gb total.

Remember if you are planning on going to 32 gigs its better to have a match set, if you are only planing on using 16gb and later on upgrade than get 2X8 matching sticks. The board is design for a match set and performs better.

I would think if your PC works with your 2gb it should work fine with an 8gb.

You can use 2 sticks of 8GB each for a total of 16 GB. If you are using Linux instead of Windows you may need to download new chipset drivers.

Yes, there is one slot for memory, so you would have to take out the 4G stick and put in an 8G stick.

Yes, I have the some computer and that was the first set up I had. However, when I replaced the 2 x 2 GB with 2x 4GB for a total of 16 it worked much smoother. When you have all the same size sticks it improves performance a little.

I got 4gb memory as advertised by the seller. If the seller does not say 4gb, than you will probably get 2gb.
