Topic: How can I get more memory? Posted: 14 Jul 2014 at 8:06pm |
I'm running Win 7 Pro on a 64 bit OS, Intel Core I7 CPU 930@ 2.80 GHz 3.81GH (Quad Core) motherboard is EVGA X58 LE SLI (Intel x58 chipset). I've only got 6GB of Ram. How can I add more? Is there a specific vendor or make I should use and would I need to take it to a shop to install or can I do it myself? I'm more of a software person than hardware so I'm not the best at working inside of a computer.
Thanks, |

Your motherboard has 6x ram/memory slots with a max capacity of 24GB.
You can find plenty of DDR3 1600mhz memory kits on Newegg for example. Might have a hard time finding a 24GB kit that's good... but you can easily buy a 16GB (4x4gb sticks) 1600mhz kit and a 8GB (2x4GB sticks) kit... for a total of 24gb. Edited by Meller - 15 Jul 2014 at 5:13am |

You can purchase it in Amazon to make some upgrade to your memory. If you can't find 24 GB, just like what Meller said you can have 16 GB.
