Sure you do; everyone does. Everyone always complains about the memory on their computers, saying they need more. If you want to upgrade the memory in your system.
Here's how to determine how much memory you have: right click on MY COMPUTER and then choose properties. The box that comes up will tell you how much RAM you have. Then, open the case and see how many slots are filled and see how many are empty. From there, you just do the math to see what size sticks you have.
Then consult with the documentation that came with the computer. The motherboard's documentation will accurately tell you how much RAM the motherboard will support. If you phone the manufacturer or consult with a website (which is what most people do), the company may (and probably will) oversell you RAM and waste your money! If you lost your documentation, call the manufacturer of your computer and, hopefully, you'll get a good salesperson.
Only upgrade memory one time on a computer. If you are thinking about upgrading RAM a second time, think about buying a new computer.
Good luck with your new memory!
