Increasing PC Memory
Hi all,
I have a Veriton M421G running Windows 7 and wish to upgrade the Ram on it. I believe it can take up to 8GB of ram. Here's a screenshot of the basic information 2011-05-07-1535.png
I want to upgrade and wondered which of these are most suitable for me:

Does it mean that I have 4 expansion bays in my tower and two of them are currently taken up with 2GB and 1GB Ram cards?
As for pricing - do these seem reasonable? I'm shipping to Europe.
Thanks in advance for your help

K Wilke,
I didnt realise that was the case. So anything over 4GB ram is pointless to my system?
ippinto - thank you for that. It's exactly as I thought. Looks like I'll only need 4GB though

Also, don't forget to install matched pairs whenever possible to ensure maximum performance.
Memory Speed options: PC2-4200 DDR2-533 240pin SDRAM DIMM
Special notes:-
- Modules must be ordered and installed in pairs for Dual Channel mode.
- A 64-bit Operating System is required to utilize more than 4GB of memory.
Are the memory slots on your motherboard different colors? ie. 2 slots black and 2 slots brown ?? If so, it is important to take advantage of the dual-channel capability of your motherboard . If you are usint all 4 slots, then this should be automatic as long as you are using matched pairs of memory.
