Upgrading DRR ram

[Domaz]

I was wondering if i would upgrade my laptop's drr ram would it help perform game vise? if i upgrade my 2GB drr2 (not sure if it's two or 3 now) up till 4 GB will this give a boost to play games?

I believe 4GB is the max you can upgrade on your computer. Otherwise, it will be limited by the OS. Game performance can benefit from a video card upgrade too but for laptops, it's a little hard to come by unless your motherboard was designed to use a separate video card.

Upgrading your RAM will only make the game run faster and smoother; it won't enhance the graphics of the game.

I see, so it will make the game run faster? For example i wanna upgrade it for crysis and such, So i can play it smoother

You will get hit by your graphics component. Especially on a laptop. Upgrading RAM will make it load faster and things like that, but visually, it will be crap. Not worth it.

are we talking about ddr or ddr2 ram?

plus it depends what the maximum capacity of the actually ram slots/motherboard are

Or better yet, maybe list the full specs of the laptop. Try running CPU-Z software or equivalent.

Wooo, that's a pretty nice system. Yeah, try upgrading the RAM to see what it does. Im sure it will benefit heavy programs that requires a lot of loading time. Very similar to what I'm running:

But I have no video card .
