You need 2x 4gb DDR 667 or 800mhz to upgrade it to 8gb.

Thanks for you reply as i am doing for the first time may i know just by removing the ram i am i going to loose some data from my computer as I did not backup my computer ?

Mohammedimran :

Ram is not storage. Ram is volatile memory, its wiped every time the computer is powered off. So no, you wont lose anything by replacing your ram.

Obviously, only replace the ram when the computer is off, and disconnected from the power.

No. 8gb is the max for that board. (2x 4gb sticks)

I have seen some videos showing how to use pen drives as Ram can i follow them to install some software which wants 4gb ram ?

Mohammedimran :

No. It doesnt work that way.

Pen drives are much much much much much much much much (...) slower than Ram. Readyboost is a poor excuse for a ram upgrade.

Just get any brand 2x 4gb DDR2 800 from the used market.

DDR2 is not in production any more I dont think.
