[Jaydan1219]

Hi i have a amd G6 1232sa with an amd a8 1.6ghz quad cpu   I'm pretty sure that this isn't stock.  Can anybody confirm this.?    

Also it has 4gb of ram i would like to upgrade this to 6gb . Can I do this with one 2gb stick and one 4gb stick as i presume it currently has two 2gb sticks of ram.. 

Thanks
