@Tufekci01 , welcome to the forum.

 

If you look in the link that you provided in the section titled "Product description", Page 1-3, it lists the memory that is compatible with the motherboard.  Also, it states that the maximum memory is 8 GB.  The truth is, you will see a slight improvement in performance.  However, the computer is only as good as its weakest link.  The computer is completely under-powered for today's apps.
