It comes with 4 GB of RAM and it runs Windows 8, which you can update to 8.1.

32GB assuming that you have windows 7 pro. Basic limits you on ram available.

Not sure but I highly recommend this laptop. It's upgradable to 32 g of RAM. It's runned nice and smoothly since I bought it.

It has 8 G of Ram and 256 G of solid state memory. No hard drive. Super fast. Great machine with no troubles in 1 year. Recommend. I might go for the 512 G solid state memory this time if you do much with images. For purely business it would be great.

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.

The one I bought has 8 GB RAM and the product description clearly said 8 GB. I did ask the seller to confirm HD and RAM size before I placed my order.

There is no OS included with this server and I believe the max RAM is 32GB.

it is a single 8GB, go to crucial.com and run the web scanner it will tell you want kind of RAM and what size for free. I put this in a HP.

Other than the advertized 16 gigs of ram, I really don't know. The hard drive is 1 terabyte. I repartitioned the hard drive, however. because Asus partitions it the opposite of other manufacturers.

This one does not come with an OS. There is a similar model number with the same hardware that does comes with Windows 7, however.

16 gb-- 2 8 gb sticks. The computer won't crash from having too much ram - the system will just not recognize more than 16 gb.

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.
