You should upgrade to 2x2gb. mushkin, kingston, or corsair gaming or mac memory. cause for doing your architecture and interior works needs more memory. Further ease multitasking with 4gb ram. cheers. now planning to upgrade the ram... what brand suit ?? normally i just do architecture and interior design work... how many Ram u guys think i should upgrade??  |

Actually if you see their websites, they do manufacture RAMs and supply the chips to others.
