You can use up to 2 GB per slot, so the max would be 8 GB (up to PC2-6400 speed), I have not tried 4 GB memory in one slot, it may work, but isn't officially supported.

Memory on the Optiplex can be upgraded up to 32GB, but has to be in matching pairs.

According to crucial.com this computer upgraded to 8 GB of RAM. There are four memory slots on the motherboard.

Yes the memory in this model can be upgraded. It comes with 4gb ddr3 1600 mhz and can be upgrade to 8gb. You should be able to find the memory here on Amazon.com. I would start by searching for ddr3 4gb 1600mhz laptop ram.

You cannot upgrade memory her due to it is soldered into motherboard. Also, this particular model has a 128 gb SSD (very fast one), not HDD. Forums says you can upgrade it, but it has specific interface, so it is hard to find a compatible one.

The memory is only expandable to 16gb. It says 32gb on their website. Kinda dissapointed.

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.

Yes you can upgrade the memory. If I were to upgrade mine I would use Corsair CMSO8GX3M2A1333C9 or CMSO4GX3M1A1333C9. The Acer Aspire V5 471P has 2 slots and a max total memory of 8GB.

Yes it can. I upgraded with a stick of Kingston DDR3 for a total system memory of 8 gigs.

Disappointed that it has only 4gb memory capability, hope that its a miss print can anybody confirm that? Don't know what to do now, the price of ram always goes down and the need for it always seems to increase.

The 6GB of ram is comprised of 1x4GB and 1x2GB, and is expandable up to 8GB by replacing the 2GB stick with a 4GB stick. Hope this helps.

Buddy, Yes it can be upgraded to a maximum of 16 gb as per the maximum specifications. However, practically I haven't tried. To best of my judgement I think it will support as HP must have done the bench marking or tests with maximum amount of RAM it can squeeze in.

I am not sure if it's possible to upgrade to the latest technology, it has limited slots and physical internal space to add memory, upgrade processor and so on.. I sold this computer already cause it is discontinued but when I asked that question the geeksquad [best buy] estimated around $400 if you provide the parts..

Karen, you cannot add memory. You buy it as it is with 32 GB. Upgrade not possible, sorry.

Memory can be upgraded in increments of four or eight gig chips of RAM. I replaced the two four gig chips with four eight gig chips maxing it out with thirty two. Machine has four memory chip slots.

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.
