How much RAM can i use on a HP rp5700

[cgtoro]

Hello everyone, i would like to know if i can remove the original two memories of 1GB each and replace them for two sticks of 2GB each to go from 1GB total RAM to 4GB, is that possible?, if it is, can i use this model: Kingston 2GB PC2-6400U DDR2 800Mhz ?.

Thanks in advance

@cgtoro,

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

Yes, you can.  As a matter of fact, if you so choose, your HP rp5700 Desktop PC can be upgraded up to 4 x 2GB of DDR2 PC2-6400, 800 MHz, Non-ECC, Unbuffered, DIMM, 240-pin RAM sticks.  Mind you, each RAM slot is only capable of running 2GB RAM per slot.

The Kingston (p/n: KVR800D2N6/2G) PC2-6400 2GB Desktop Memory 240-PIN DIMM RAM should be compatible.

If you are interested in 4 x 2GB RAM, look/shop around and see if you can purchase something like this in your country as available in the US: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07PW5J626/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_plhdr=t&aaxitk=945729dd86ea2a037da21....

Since we are at it, an Intel Core 2 Duo E7600 processor is compatible with your PC, which means that according to: CPU-Upgrade: Intel Core 2 Duo E7600 CPU, you should be able to upgrade your processor all the way to an Intel Core 2 Duo E8600.
