What is the performance after memory upgrade?

I found memory to be, well - just OK. My MacAir is 4 - 5 hours, the ASUS 1201n was more like 3 - 4 hours. That's just web browsing and a bit of word processing.

Performance increase with the RAM upgrade but, installing an SSD really did the trick. Well worth the small extra investment.

Performance will probably be very close, unless you start using very high resolution monitors or multi monitor setups that require the extra ram. Really, you are buying the extra ram for future as I haven't found anything that really uses this at standard 1080p resolutions. The draw for this card beyond the memory is the cooling setup. Very nice.

Not sure how many memory slots it has, as I've never opened the computer. Frankly, unless I was an expert at tearing these things down and building them up, I would not upgrade the RAM; which I'm not sure is possible.

Go to "system" and it will show the amount of RAM Memory. Mine came with 8gb.

Not sure what the results will be. But I would think you would have to install what they recommend since that's how I found the correct memory for my computer.

How much of a difference has the memory (upgrade to 4gig) made? I'm pretty happy with the speed in general, but every so often, I get the waiting gray icon.

Ram is fine what is your processing speed and video capability that is going to have an effect on rendering

This upgrade will work without issue, XP has a limit of addressing between 3 and 3.5GB of memory so this 2GB will be fully recognizable

Just visit www.crucial.com. They have the Crucial Advisor tool which shows all compatible memory, when you pick your specific system off the list. There is also a System Scanner tool that will analyze your system and determine all compatible upgrades. The latter is better if you have no idea about your system specs.

Yes, it's a really easy upgrade to 8GB. There's one slot, take 2GB out and put the 8GB stick in.

The memory is not upgradable as it is soldered to the motherboard. Personally I have run some games on high resolution settings and the gameplay has been excellent. Additionally, Windows 8 has been architected to be more efficient with the memory it uses so the higher memory requirements should not be an issue unless you plan on running Hyper-V or doing memory intensive type of computing.

UPDATE: I put the original 1GB memory back in and haven't had any trouble at all since then. I'm sure that it's the Crucial memory that's causing it.

this info means nothing regarding memory modules.It's a good question for HP though.

I bought NB505-N508BL 7 days back. Nice Piece! If you just want to surf internet, check emails, watch movie and listen to music there is no need to upgrade the memory. For better performance one can upgrade the memory to 2gig (DDR3 for new models and DDR2 for older ones). I upgraded to windows 7 pro and 2 gigs memory. My netbook works as good as a laptop. Note: Please don't order memory before you start using the machine, 1 GB DDR3 should be sufficient for basic users.

mine had 4gb and i upgraded to the 8gb.. which i think is the min amount of ram to have

My preference is fo OEM over upgrade but back up your data first of course. Can't guarantee everything (sw/hw) will work going from 32 to 64 bit but there are usually workarounds.

I just bought one and it is a little over 4 G shared from the RAM. So 8 G RAM is good but for the APU upgrading is a must at least for me.
