Isn't RAM one of those premium essentials for your computer? One of the main things that makes things go by quickly? If that's true, then why is the upgrade so easy and cheap? I saw 1 gig upgrades for 60 cash.

Are there multiple gig upgrades that come in one slot? Can a laptop run out of slots to upgrade it with?

Not any, I was just using a video editing system as an example. I don't plan on spending over 200$ for a program... ha. I'm not that kneedeep yet.

I see, so how much should I be looking to spend on such an upgrade? And is it difficult to install? Like, should I go to a store to have them do it?

I'm talking like a 1 gig or 2 gig upgrade.

How much should it be?

I've seen some crazy laptops in the ranges of 3-4 grand. That's insane. My father got this one, he hasn't disclosed how much. I'm sure it's around 1,400 or so, based on other HP computers.

Matched pairs? You mean the exact same model or something?

In my case, would I need two exact copies of 1GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm) memory? Or something?

What? I'm unfamiliar with that.


I'll make a scenario.
*I buy a computer already stock with 2 gigs of ram, fresh from the manufacturer.
*I buy the same computer, only this one has 1 gig of ram, and then I upgrade it by using a memory stick or something to give it an extra gig.
*Will the second computer be slower, since the ram is not stock, and is merely added later?

Nothing amazing. Just whatever comes out with low grade settings. I'm more of a console gamer. Is the card good enough for video viewing and editing and all that jazz?
