Max RAM?

Hi all

I have a HP dv7-4070us (i5 - 450, 180 SSD Intel 330 1 TB WD Scorpio Blue, Windows 7 Edition home premium 64-bit, 8 GB RAM, ATI HD 5650) currently I begin to learn software Adobe master suite, of things quite dense, however, I realize that up to 8 GB of RAM is kind of pushing my system, (I like to multitask) so I was wondering if it was possible to move to 16 GB of RAM Since I was 8 GB now. The original information stated as 8 GB max Ram, but I read here (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00820047) for my system, in accordance with article

"Taken maximum memory supported by the operating system", max ram is 16 GB. So, is the upgrade to 16 GB possible or is it just wishful thinking? I know that the macbook pro recommended max ram is 8 gb, but other people have found that this max ram is actually 16 GB, this could be a similar situation here? Thank you very much!

EDIT: just realized I posted in the forum display section... Sorry

Hello:

As well the manual maintenance and the State plug of the maxiumum for your system memory is 8 GB.

Service manual, Chapter 1, page 3.

http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c02666747.PDF

Specifications of product page...

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02207147

If your laptop is the Intel 5 series chipset, the max memory is 8 GB.

The service manual indicates your PC a series Intel 5 (HM55) chipset (Chapter 1, page 2)

If it has the Intel 6 series chipset, the maximum memory is 16 GB.

Normally, if the PC is shipped with processors intel generation second, it can take 16 GB of memory.  Your i - 5 450 is an Intel 1st generation of processor.

The information you read on this link you posted affect how the operating system memory can answer, not how much memory material can respond.

  • HP G62-b51SI: Max Ram in a laptop HP G62 b51SI

    Nice day

    I would like to know what is the max Ram I can update in my laptop HP G62-b51SI?

    At the moment I have 2x2gig of Ram. When I insirted 2x4gig ram, the laptop wouldn't start.

    The problem with that is that if it has a global maximum of 4 concerts there also a max per slot of 2 GB. So, theoretically a 4 GB does not work in a slot, if max is really 4 gigs. If 4 GB works when it is installed by itself, then we can have a bad location or a problem of bad module. This seems like an extreme long shot, but what you have to lose by trying?

  • What is the max RAM for minitour HP Elite 8200?

    Hi, I looking for a PC HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT (number LE245PA) and have a question about the maximum RAM that will be. The PC is http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/en/sm/WF05a/12454-12454-64287-3328898-3328898-5037949.html?dnr=1

    Page 10 of http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13879_na/13879_na.pdf is a bit ambiguous, and I can't work if the maximum is 16 GB, or is it to 32 GB.

    It says "1 GB, 2 GB and 4 GB memory DDR3 DRAM technologies are supported. "Thanks to the 4 GB device technologies, the largest possible memory capacity is 32 GB, mode with four x 8 GB dual channel double rank unbuffered DIMM memory configuration.

    But then the table at the bottom of the same page seems to imply that the maximum is 16 GB.

    Please can someone tell if the maximum is 16GB or 32GB in this model?

    Hello:

    I don't understand all this rigamarole.

    It's very confusing. It seems that HP has copied some info from Intel about the specifications of the chipset and I couldn't make either heads or tails of it on the Intel site.

    Max RAM per slot is 4 GB.

    I installed 16 GB in mine.

  • Satellite A200-10W - max RAM upgrade

    Hello.. I would like to know what is the max ram I can use to my laptop if I install the service pack for vista,.
    can my laptop get 8 gb and vista can use all of them?
    Thnx for all :)

    Hello

    The max RAM always depends on installed chipset.
    I put t know what chipset is in charge of your laptop but you could install a tool of diagnosis of equipment as for example Everest home edition and you could check chipset.

    Check the chipset specifications and properties on the Intel page.
    Then, you need to know what amount of RAM max is possible.

    With regard to 4 GB media.
    Akuma is right. The 32-bit OS can see only 3.2 GB
    Only the 64 bit OS can handle more than 3 GB of RAM

    Hi Chuck

    Data sheet:http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Pavilion-dv7-Entertainment-Notebook-PC-series/4247665/model/4323583/document/c02497776/

    Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02642701

    Up to 8 GB max.

    3, 23 and 57 in the manual page gives the details you need.

    Put two stick 4 GB of exactly the same configuration, speed etc as in the manual and each other, perhaps even brand. Crucial, Kingston have their online scanners that contains the list guaranteed compatible sticks.

    You can also order the HP part, if you need to get the exact part of HP part store or online retailers via Amazon or eBay.

  • Increase max ram upgrade processor

    If I update my processor can who also say I might have more ram? like if your max ram 8 GB but you upgraded to a superior processor, could you get more ram without something bad happening? also, why is there a maximum ram in the first place? (recommended by HP or something, not the OS max)

    The answer to your question is no. the processor has nothing to do with the amount of RAM you have. See Bill Smithers response for more details.

    Hello:

    .. .and make sure that if you want to update the BIOS, do it before installing W7, or you will be brick the phone if you Flash the BIOS thereafter.

    The bad news is that they need a new notebook PC.

  • Find the max ram?

    have an old Compaq Presario SR1200NX, I want to upgrade. The hp website says that the max ram for this device is 1 GB (2x512mb), but all the stores online claim that the max is 2GB (2x1gb). Why are they different? They are just trying to sell me more ram? I tried 3 stores and they all say the same thing 2 GB max. Who is right?

    Both the HP motherboard specifications and the specifications indicate 1 GB maximum. You can take a chance on two dimms of 1 GB by train but understand the return policy before you buy.

    Your PC was built is 2004 so it is old enough to make improvements.

  • What is the max RAM I should update?

    Hello

    My system is a 27 "iMac i5 2.8 GHz with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM. Currently, I am now running Snow Leopard OS. My system has 1 CPU and 4 cores.

    If I had to use After Effects CS5, what is the maximum amount of RAM I should update?

    Someone told me that the max my system can use is 4 GB of RAM (which means no point me upgrading the RAM) because I have only 1 processor 4 cores. Is this correct? Otherwise, what is the max RAM I should update?

    Thank you very much, really appreciate a good answer.

    See you soon

    Mylenium wrote that told you about your system isn't true that your system is 64-bit and 64-bit will take as much RAM you can give him and after effects CS 5 can enjoy more RAM and works better with more RAM.

    Now a graphics card has in general not as much effect in improving the performance of EI, but with more VRam graphics will also help with open gl features.

    It is also an option your iMac takes 16 GB of RAM so your answer is 16GB is what you need and when they update the RAM and make it backwards compatible which will help as well. So keep an eye on the future. Because 16 GB cards can now get so when they do them for theMac they might mac them backward compatible.
