and the current RAM model I have is here: http://www.playtech.co.nz/afawcs0139...L9D-4GBNT.html
I just want to upgrade to 8 GB, I have two singular 2 GBS. And I think I have another slot, if you guys could recommend me the right model to buy or use to upgrade I would very much appreciate it, I also live in Australia by the way.
EDIT ADDITIONAL NOTES: When ever I play a game on high quality like say... Dead island or Bio shock, I notice my computer fan gets really loud and when I check my MSI afterburner it's going at 92/100, and when it can't take it any more the screen goes all pixeley... And when I try record a game with fraps my game and computer start lagging alot, would getting more ram solve this issue?
