Product: HP N otebook G61-320CA
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Please advise Max RAM upgrade option; I have currently 3 GB using 2 memory slots

 

If 4 GB is the max would It be pointless to add 1 GB & expect to notice any performance improvment?

 

For the meatheads like me what is the RAM max factor based on, some kind of Motherboard capacity or limitation?

 

Thank You

Rockets

Its specs

           https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c01954006

 

You can upgrade to 4GB (2 x 2GB) max as shown from its specs. It has 3GB now, you simply throw away 1GB and buy SAME 2GB to install to your machine.

 

Regards.
