Hi @sharpie

What have you got installed at the moment?

If you have 2 x 4GB modules installed at the moment work out what would be the cheapest option, using quality brand memory. Upgrade to 16GB using same specification 4GB DDR3 10600 1333MHz ram modules i.e add another 2 x 4GB, or add 1 X 8GB DDR3 10600 1333MHz ram module.
