Solved! Maximum Ram memory possible

[Yarin777]

hello,
i own Asus x550cc laptop which have 4gb of ram solderd. and 1 available slot for extra ram.
my question is how much ram is possible to install in that slot.
is it ok to put extra 8gb ram so i can have in total 12gb ? (4 gb soldered + 8gb additional)

According to Crucial, you can add a 8GB SODIMM. You will only have 10GB of available memory as 2GB appears to be dedicated for video.

hey. thanks for the fast reply!
another question, you said 2GB appears to be dedicated for video .
i assume you meant graphic card.
i have 2 graphic cards. one is intel 4000hd which i know it correlated to the cpu.
and the second one is nividia 720M.
nividia 720M is the deafult graphic card im using. and also its saying that (if im not mistaken) that it has its own 2gb unit allocated for nividia use only.
so, if im using nividia gpu. is is correct to say that all ram memory is free to use (all 12gb instead 10gb/12gb)?

I am just going by the note on the Crucial site. We'll know for sure when you install the memory. Please let us know how it turns out.
