I'm looking to purchase one of these and very interested in adding 2GB. If I'm understanding correctly you installed 2 2GB sticks in yours? Is it really as easy as it appears to installed the sticks?

@mcarter251 yes, just plug and play

What happens If I upgraded my 2GB ram notebook into 4GB will my notebook (laptop) run faster on 3d games and supports high graphic options? (like minecraft)

I just ordered the same memory but desktop memory from amazon for $27 new.

Does windows 7 starter not recognize 2/4 GB ddr3 still? I want to upgrade my asus 1015pem with windows 7 starter to 4 GB ddr3 ram. Is that still possible?

@MrEdisonChar RAM isn't designed to increase speed. Instead it's designed to keep memory. Example is like muti-tasking. When you do more things at once it becomes harder and you work slower. the more things you do and have to remember the slower you get. RAM keeps all that memory, so if you overload your RAM you often freeze or crash. Speed comes form processors & for high graphics stuff, the graphics card.

@xkos2007 no, i own this exact model w\1gb ram and the best I can play without buffer skip is 480p.

I use linux which is way lighter and runs better than stupid wind0hs

@MrLukehorvath netbooks have ddr2

To make it simple.

By increasing your Ram you are increasing the amount your computer can do at the same time and not increasing its actual speed.

However there are many factors involved with Ram which effect the Ram's performance.
