Is the memory 4x1 or 2x2? 4x1 is better for upgrade.

comes with 4x1. can be upgraded to 2x8GB, for total of 16GB (see review and comments posted today by Cullen J. Delmore)

I got 4gb memory as advertised by the seller. If the seller does not say 4gb, than you will probably get 2gb.

You can not use both DDR & DDR2 Memory on the same mother board. Depending on how many memory slots the board has. 2 slots can be upgraded to 1GB in each slot, 4 slots you can leave 2 empty. If your board does have slots for DDR & DDR2, I would use DDR2 because of the speed. You have to remember that the memory slots are just a bit different. The slot is in a different spot. Always get memory in pairs, unless you only have 1 slot. When in doubt you can always go online to the manufacturer of your computer or the one that made the mother board. They should be able to answer any and all questions. Hope this helps. You can not use both DDR & DDR2 Memory on the same mother board.

According to ASUS specs this should be an 8 gb max ram while retailing at 4gb. It is true that the two available slots are occupied. However, that should not stop one from upgrading by replacing the 2gb x 2 to 4gb x 2. I have ordered one and have talked to asus tech support which says it is possible and the complete line up has an 8gb max by default

Mine came with 2 x 2Gb memories, it has two slots so you may buy a 2 x 4Gb kit and replace the actual memories

Yes it would affect performance, it is best to put 2 of the same type at the same time in. Like running your 2x4gb or 2x8gb.Also if you are not running a 64bit system it would be useless to do it

Yes, I just did that with 5x of them and it works perfectly. They come with a single 4gb module and adding a second one improves the memory throughput as well because it then goes in dual channel mode. Just be sure to install it in the same color slot as the one that's already in there and you'll be all set. Hope that helps!

I don't think they've officially said one way or the other yet. I strongly suspect it'll be possible, because it seems like there are 2 RAM slots available and you should be able to pop in a second 2GB stick if you really want, but you'll probably have to wait until these are officially released to find out how easy or difficult that'll be in practice.

The amount of available video RAM is higher in the 4GB unit than the 2GB one you linked.

Long story short: you shouldn't, I highly recommend to use 4X4GB for this motherboard, this ram memories aren't for the specs it have.

It would, at the lowest speeds, probably. However, I believe dual channel would be kind of buggy and there's always the chance to have faulty memory because it's kind of old.I had a 2x1GB kit and removed it to put my new 4x2GB kit. I would do the same, if I were you. Either way, you can just buy it, try with 6GB and then try with only 4GB. I recommend buying 4x2GB though.Good luck!

Is it posable, yes... is it recommended..OH HELL NOI would recommend that you remove both 2gb and replace with the two 4gb.. The way RAM works, is in a way that it will use both ports at the same time, and having two different sticks is only asking for trouble.. Where as if both are spec the same, they would operate at the same rate.

The 6GB of ram is comprised of 1x4GB and 1x2GB, and is expandable up to 8GB by replacing the 2GB stick with a 4GB stick. Hope this helps.

Slightly better but not a significant when it comes to processing power, Classified comes a bit more overclocked. Memory wise, 4gb is great for multiple monitor configurations than 2gigs, also, newer games and mods are requiring more vram lately and 2gb is nowadays barely enough. So you get the same graphics chip but you'll have to tweak a bit the SC to get the same speed aa classified.

I'm with Jeff S....you are going to want to put memory in pairs, so I would only recommend 12gb if you find 2x6GB chips. A 16GB kit (2x8GB chips) are pretty reasonably priced at this point, so that would by my recommendation.

you can use the single 8GB stick. As mentioned elsewhere, it will probably run a bit faster with 2 sticks of 4 (as long as you aren't using slower memory).

Yes, you can put upto 16gb (8x2). Also you can upgrade the ssd, any msata ssd will work.
