Re: Ram upgrade question

I'll move this to the ram section, but I'll need to now the brand and model of the PC or the motherboard only if it is a custom build.

Re: How much ram will my PC take?

Looks like only 1Gig per slot and 2 slots so I would say no, besides your better off with matched sticks for the faster Dual Channel mode then with single channel and more ram in my opinion.
