Go to "control panel", then go to "system and security", then under the "system" see if it says RAM = 8.00GB. If it says so then yes. If it says 4.0 GB there, it has 4 GB.

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.

As far as I know it is a 8GB but the one I bought was stolen three weeks after I brought it.

Mine is 8GB. It's an "ASUS - 14" Laptop - 8GB Memory - 750GB Hard Drive - Black Model Q400A-BHI7N03".

It's 2 x 4GB. The computer has a total of 4 memory slots. The other 2 slots are empty and available for upgrades, they don't have to be installed in pairs. You can go all the way up to 32GB on this machine.

It used to be advertised as 8gb. It's actually a little less (7.6 I think). But it holds plenty of music

I too just purchased this new and put in a brand new laptop , and only shows 29.27 gb freespace, almost 3gb less than advertised. It does say on the packaging that "a certain portion of capacity may be used for system files and maintenance, thus the actual capacity may differ from that indicated on the product label". So I'm assuming all is well with mine.

If you're talking about the seller that says 1GB, it is most likely 1GB. When these first came out, they had only 1GB to start with, and you are able to upgrade to a maximum of 2GB (That's what the motherboard supports; Any more than 2GB and it won't be used - With that said, I wouldn't trust the sellers with 4GB ones.) Even if you did buy a 1GB one, upgrading that to 2GB is VERY cheap nowadays, so you don't have to worry.

It says on Amazon 16 GB but mine has 24 GB and recognizes and uses all of it with no problems whatsoever. I'm pretty sure I had read before that it was 32GB before I purchased the extra memory because I ordered it with the laptop. This is the best machine I have ever owned by far and I only use it at home and for connection to my office computers through GoToMyPC which I also highly recommend.

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.

I think it was 3320GB, didn't last long though. Powers on no boot after three months. It's also out of warranty. Get one with it!

Usually the computer comes used with 2 gigabytes of RAM, and a 160G harddrive. The operating system is usually Windows 7. The computer has been a good stable, fast computer for us. I originally bought one for the oldest daughter, and when configuring it I found it to be very quiet and fast. So I have since bought 4 more. I would only buy one that was running Windows 7 Pro, and had at least an 80G harddrive. Since he is a student, he can buy Microsoft Office for about $70 dollars.I would highly recommend the computer. If you have future questions, please don't hesitate to ask. We just moved into a new home and I don't have internet yet, so I may be slow in answering.Good Luck Usually the computer comes used with 2 gigabytes of RAM, and a 160G harddrive.

It comes with 2GB, since there is only one memory slot it may be upgraded by replacing the original RAM with a 4GB module and it may be possible to use a 8GB instead.

This is really an unreliable deal. When I got this computer it had eight. But the seller only had one in stock and it had defects so i return it anyways. who know if you get an 8 gb model or something else.

According to Dell, This model max RAM is 8 GB. Since 4GB already installed (2x2GB), you have to replace them instead add more, there is no slots for it. And yet, you have to install a 64 bit OS to be able to use any memory beyond 4GB. 4 GB is more than enough for the toy. that is my 2 cents.

Mine came as 16gb as well-it looks like they have corrected the listing since I purchased mine in May.

Mine has 4GB installed from new. I assume the reference to 8GB is the maximum possible.

From my review: This laptop has a maximum memory of 8GB with 2 memory slots, one of which comes empty from factory, so I also purchased a 4GB memory upgrade for this laptop (approx $40). Product ordered was: Kingston 4GB 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 Laptop Memory Model KVR16S11/4; works great! It comes with 4 GB (1 slot), so just added another 4 GB (2nd slot); in product description, it states supports a maximum of 8 GB total. Hope that helps ...

My computer has 4GB. I think that the pic is about the software. I beieve that if it says 4GB that's what it is.

The machine that I received had 6gb of memory, but the description listed online said that it came with 4gb.
