I'm looking to buy some extra ram, my current RAM is:

Its at around 80-90% due to running 3 Java applications. Could anyone suggest what to get? I don't want to get 3 new sticks, I just want to add an extra one.

I bought my computer as a whole, I didn't set it up. I guess I could take the side off and check. What if there's no rams like the ones I have for sale, could I just get another make?

If you bought the computer as a whole, I doubt the manufacturer took the time to label the RAM. My recommendation would be to buy a new set and replace the dimms you have now. RAM is dirt cheap, and you'll see benefits from having 8GB of 1600Mhz RAM.

I really wan't to get 12GB as I have two applications running that take 2GB each and then like another 10 programs.

Would it affect the performance in any way if its 3 cards and not 2 or 4. On scan.co.uk theres 50 of over 2 cards and only like 5 which are 3 cards.

I'm looking at this at the moment: http://www.scan.co.uk/products/12gb-(3x4gb)-corsair-vengeance-jet-black-ddr3-pc3-12800-(1600)-non-ecc-cas-9-9-9-24-xmp-150v

Would my system support it? http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/5821/50be7842c2af487b8d0d0d2.png
