I have a Packard Bell IMEDIA X2424 AIO desktop PC (bought about 4 years ago) with 2x2GB RAM which i want to upgrade to 2x4GB. It has...
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
PB mcp73vt-pm motherboard
Windows 7 32bit (upgraded from Vista 32bit)
The computer is sold with a 32bit os so all I can find online is people saying not to go over the 4gb limit. But if I upgrade to 64bit, will the motherboard take the extra ram? I need to edit some HD video and I reckon the processor will just about hold up - it's just shame about the lack of ram.
Thanks in advance for any info, this is pretty new to me.
