I need 0.5GB RAM to upgrade to Windows 7 -64bit. Is this compatible with my Compaq desktop?

I don't know. Try a site like crucial.com lets you search for RAM based on your computer model.

Not enough info. Go to HP's website and look up the model number of your machine to look up the specifications for the RAM

I have installed win 7 64bit and it works fine. About DDR3 I am not sure I use DDR2 that were originally installed in the machines.

A 64 bit windows install is the norm today compared with 32 bit installations. I don't remember reading anything that would lead me to believe that there would be any problem. My advice, go for it. This board is inexpensive and has worked for me without a hitch. Peace.

The answer is yes 32Gb is a go!! This is a real nice board but make sure you get the memory off the approved list of supported DIMM's. Hers is a link to the support page at MSI for this board.http://us.msi.com/product/mb/970AG46.html#hero-specification. Also if you go with Windows 8.1 download the necessary drivers form this page as the will be newer than those on the Disc. Good luck this MoBo Rocks!!

Yes it is compatible !Here is a site that specifies what RAM is needed for that computer. It looks identical to what is offered on Amazon.http://www.crucial.com/upgrade/HP+-+Compaq-memory/HP+2000+Series/HP+2000-239WM-upgrades.html

I have not done it yet myself, but upgrading RAM and hard drives are both possible on this machine. A good place to see what is compatible is www.crucial.com.

You need to look at the specifications of the motherboard - according to this link (http://www.okmemory.com/Compaq-Evo_Desktop-07E4h-D14503-memory.html), the answer is no

Yes it is, according to the specs listed on the HP website... However, it will take (800mhz) RAM also so I would go with that instead (Crucial 4GB Kit (2GBx2) DDR2 800MHz (PC2-6400) CL6 SODIMM 200-Pin Notebook Memory Modules CT2KIT25664AC800) it runs about $10 more but it's worth the extra few bucks for the increase in RAM speed... Good luck & enjoy the upgrade... RH

I would imagine it is. It is compatible with my dell laptop and my windows tablet I don't see why it wouldn't be compatible with compaq

Yes. I installed windows 7 pro 64bit on the computer that has this processor in it. Great processor. i do a lot of gaming and video editing, and while my system does have its bottlenecks, this processor isnt one of them.

Shouldn't be a problem, just purchase another 8gb stick. Also agree with the other answer an ssd is a much better way to upgrade this notebook. I talk about this in my review. About the other answer though, he/she indicates two ram slots are in use. At least in mine it came with one 8gb stick instead of two 4gb sticks.

You can add RAM as well as a SSD (given you have the proper drivers. However I would not reccomend downgrading to windows 7, as the computer was designed to run on windows 7 and the hardware/drivers may have compatibility issues with windows 7.

I successfully upgraded mine with 2 x 8GB DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz 240 pin UDIMM (16gb total memory showing both in the BIOS and Windows 8.1). I believe the G3220 supports up to 32GB but it is likely with 4 x 8GB RAM and this desktop only has 2 slots.

That's funny, because mine came with Windows 7 Home 32-bit and only 2 gb of ram. I paid $200 for it. Make sure you check with each individual seller to see what they're selling you.

I run Windows7 and have not had a problem. As to if it will take more Ram ask Acer
