Hello. I have question about upgrading RAM on notebook. I want to add 8GB stick of ram to the installed 4Gb one.

 

As I heard on internet, 8+4Gb RAM can work OK, if motherboard support 8Gb RAM sticks.

 

CPU-Z  on mainboard information give me this information:

 

HP 1844 56.32

Chipset: Intel Sandy Bridge Rev/ 09
Southbridge: Intel HM76 Rev. 04

 

 

But I do not understand where I can find information,

 

does my motherboard support 8GB of RAM, or 8+4=12Gb in Total.

 

Where I can find out this?

Hi:

 

The service manual for your notebook indicates the maximum memory per slot is 4 GB, so the most you can install is 2 x 4 GB.

 

The memory upgrade info can be found in chapter 1 of the service manual at the link below.

I don't know of anyone on this forum that has installed an 8 GB memory module in one of the slots on a g6-2xxx or g7-2xxx notebook, so there is no other information I can share.
