How Many Memory Modules (1 or 2) Come Pre-Installed in HP Envy Touchsmart m7-j120dx?

I know my HP Envy Touchsmart m7-j120dx came preinstalled with 8GB of RAM.  I purchased it last year from Best Buy.  Haven't taken the back off of the laptop just yet and it's at home while I'm at work, but wanted to see if anyone can verify *how* the standard 8GB of RAM is in there at present?  Two 4GB memory modules or a single 8GB memory module?
I'm trying to place an order online this afternoon to upgrade the laptop to 16GB of RAM and I'd like to know if I need to order two 8GB memory modules or just a single 8GB memory module, depending on exactly how many memory modules are in the laptop at present to make the existing 8GB of RAM I'm running.
Thanks if anyone knows the answer to this.

Okay, one more question...
The memory in my laptop came pre-stalled with 8GB of it, with the characteristics of 1600Mhz and DDR3L PC3-12800.
Replacement memory (16GB) recommended by Crucial.com for my system has 1866Mhz instead of 1600Mhz, and is DDR3L PC3-14900.
What was recommended has of course slightly higher specs of the memory than what's currently running in my system for an additional $23 over just replacing the memory with 16GB of RAM having the identical 1600Mhz and DDR3L PC3-12800 specs.
Can my HP Envy TouchSmart m7-j120dx actually do anything as far as increased performance in going with the 1866Mhz and DDR3L PC3-14900 memory or would my laptop continue to "dumb the memory down" to 1600Mhz and DDR3L PC3-12800 specs and not be able to utilize the enhanced specs of 1866Mhz and DDR3L PC3-14900?
Just trying to spend my money wisely.  Thanks for any additional clarification.

  • How many memory slots on latest iMac?

    Thinking of purchasing iMac 27", 3.4; i5. From what I understand, the memory card access point is in the back, therefore easy to upgrade. How many memory card slots are there? Also, it is recommended at 32 max. Has anyone tried to up that to 64, and if so, any issues. I do a lot of photography with Adobe.
    Thank you in advance.

    1. Four.
    2. At this point, treat 32GB as being the limit.

  • How to find out how many memory is used for NIO

    is there any way to find out how many memory is used for nio in a virtual machine. ?
    I know that is possible to find out how many total, free and used memory the heap has by using java.lang.Runtime#totalMemory...
    We sometimes expect errors that it is not possible to create any more connections because of the NIO memory size but the heap is still ok. Today we had an error where 170mbytes of heap where left but it was not possible to create new tcp connections because of an exception:
    javax.naming.NamingException: java.net.SocketException: No buffer space available (maximum connections reached?): connect
    The number of TCP-Connections was ok (<500).
    It would be very nice if someone knows how to find out how the amount of memory that NIO buffers use can be determined within Java 1.4.
    best regards
    benjamin

    We have to use 1.4.2_03. This is because of the special environment we are running on.
    We did also figured out that there are some NIO Memory Bugs but we since we are not allowed to upgrade the used Virtual Machine we have to live with these errors.
    The problem that we currently have is within a Server and because of this circumstance we are trying to find a workaround or way to find out how many memory is allocated. If we would know how to get this value we could restart the servers as a workaround after the value reaches a threshold.
    We are also very sad that we can`t easily upgrade/update to the latest 1.4.2 Version or the newest 1.5 to get rid of these NIO Bugs!

  • How many application modules do I have to have ?

    Sir,
    In my JClient application, there is a model project which contains view objects for two forms. One of the forms is opened witin the other form.
    If I include all view objects in one application module, will the two forms share one database session and be committed at the same time?
    If I want to open these two forms in different database session, how can I get it?How many application modules should I create? And how to arrange these application modules?
    Thanks
    Stephen

    Frank,
    Now I create two application modules for the two forms in the same model project, and one of the forms has a JCLoginDianlog created, the other one has no JCLoginDialog. And I unselect the deploy password checkbox for the connection.
    How can I open the second form within the first form without the second login procedure? I mean, can I keep the first login credential and use it for the second form login?
    In Forms Builder, the end user need to login once when opens the main window, and don't need login when opening subcequent forms. Can Jdeveloper do that?
    Thanks

  • How Many Application Module should I have ?

    Hi All,
    Could you please share your experience...
    I am developing a ADF Faces + BC application, how can I determine how many application module should I have ?
    I have modules , i.e :
    Sales
    AR
    Inventory
    Purchasing
    GL
    Can I say that I should have 5 application modules ? ( one for each module ? )
    Thank you for your info,
    xtanto

    Its difficult to know if 80 is too much or jus right...The danger is that if you have many application modules, and for example a particular UI page requires you to manipluate data in many application modules then this has potential to be "overkill"...each AM requires a check out from the AM pool and database connection etc. etc. etc.
    If you need to manipulate many app modules on a single UI page if you were to nest these application modules then this might be more reaslistic...However, if a couple of UI pages requires manipulation of only one app module this sounds reasonable...
    I dont know if that really helps you
    So if on pages A, B and C you maintain Sales Order (which is one app module) then thats ok.
    If in pages X, Y and Z you manipulate Quotation (which is one app module) that would be ok as well.
    If the use case is that in page F, G and H you maintain Sales and on page J you maintain Quotation then you might want to nest one inside the other.
    If your use case is on screen K, L M, N, O, P and Q you access 4-5 different app modules then that would raise a concern with me...
    Again, don't know if that helps,,,
    One way of lookin at this is to create your VOs based on the way you want in the information to appear on your pages and from those pages think about the "uses case" and create your app modules based on those use cases...
    Does that help?
    regards

  • How many memory is used for the process of one connection?

    Hi,
    how many memory is used for the process of one connection in unix
    when the user connects to the database?
    Thanks,

    Write some queries using v$sesstat, v$statname, v$session to find the statistics for different stats. Query name from v$statname and find whatever you wants. I don't think there is a common rule that tells how much memory will be used for each connection, it depends on different factors like , resources available, type of databases, database memory settings etc.
    Example query.
    select s.osuser osuser,s.serial# serial,se.sid,n.name,
    max(se.value) maxmem
    from v$sesstat se,
    v$statname n
    ,v$session s
    where n.statistic# = se.statistic#
    and n.name in ('session pga memory','session pga memory max',
    'session uga memory','session uga memory max')
    and s.sid=se.sid
    group by n.name,se.sid,s.osuser,s.serial#
    order by 2

  • On how many of my computers am I allowed to install Premier elements if I purchase it ?

    On how many of my computers am I allowed to install Premier elements if I purchase it ?
    Is the software provided on a CD ?
    thanks

    temolo
    If have Premiere Elements just on your old computer and you decide to buy a new computer and use the same purchased S/N Premiere Elements on the new, there are several options....keep in mind that your goal is NOT to have installed this purchased serial number on more than two of your computers.
    a. If you want to sell the old computer and/or never want to use Premiere Elements version x on it, then Deactivate in the Help Menu/Deactivate of the program if that option is there. Then close the program and uninstall via the typical Control Panel route.
    or
    b. You could leave Premiere Elements on the old computer and just install the same purchased serial number Premiere Elements on the new. The matter of having to buy a new Premiere Elements may come up only if you then want to leave a Premiere Elements with the same serial number on the old and new computers and then buy a 3rd computer and want to put Premiere Elements with that purchased serial number on that as well - not removing the program from old and new.
    Focus on....each purchased serial number represents a license and that license does not permit you to put that purchased serial number on any more than 2 computers.
    Please review and see if the above helps. If you have one purchased copy of Premiere Elements along with a serial number unique to it and just two computers are involved (old and new), it is not clear to me when you talk about a 3rd license. If you do not see my point, please let me know and I will try to explain another way. No problem.
    Thanks

  • Does photoshop come pre-installed for free?

    does it come pre-installed for free on the iMacs? Because i want to get one and i am wondering if it is on there for free?

    Photoshop is not a free or OEM product on any system, any platform that I know of.
    As the previous post says, you can download a trial version, but the full product, depending on level, on any platform (Windows or Mac) costs about $650, or $1000 for the extended version....

  • How many gb does the ipad 2 come with

    I am planning to buy an ipad2. To help me determine whether I should get 16 or 32 Gb. I need to know how many gb are already occupied (by the ios, etc) when the ipad arrives.

    Disclaimer - For me the Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture very different from that found in most 1st world nations, such as that in the two dominant North American countries. Written language has no tone. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    At this point Apple only sells a new 16 GB iPad 2. If you want a larger capacity new iPad 2 you will need to find it from another source. Yes, a new iPad has about 2 GB of the operating system and bundled Apple iOS apps installed.

  • How many Sapphire Sapphire RADEON R9 270X can i install in my mac pro 2009?

    How many of the graphics cards can I install in my mac pro 2009? Sapphire Sapphire RADEON R9 270X
    Thanks

    Why? do you use FCP-X? that will benefit from two. Also gaming in Windows where you can use Crossfire
    You have two 6-pin power feeds so you will need a small 450W PSU - those come with two 8-pin and two 6-pin.
    Those can often fit in the optical drive bay and cost $25-75 range.
    "500W" is NOT for the card! that is the minimum PC PSU only!
    when buying look for card that uses only two 6-pin and not an 8-pin power.
    75W for the PCIe slot, and 150W from two 6-pin cables, most GPUs fall into the 200-250W at maximum stress levels8-pin is basically two 6-pins and 150W feed
    > we CrossFired a pair of Radeon R9 270s in our 2010 Mac Pro tower. Under Windows 7 64bit Ultimate, it registered 145 FPS in the Diablo test.
    http://barefeats.com/tube06.html
    Keep in mind that the Mac Pro tower can't feed enough power to the dual 980s, dual 290Xs, or dual 7950s.
    We used an auxillary power supply to compensate.
    For the hard core GPU rendering, there are external expansion boxes with their own power supplies.
    In an earlier article, we featured the Cubix Xpander which facilitated the connection of 5 GPUs to the Mac Pro tower.
    If you favor an AMD GPU like the Radeon R9 290X, MacVidCards can modify it to run at PCIe 2.0 bandwidth in your Mac Pro tower.
    The Sapphire Radeon R9 7950 Mac Edition is available from OWC and TransIntl.

    December 28th, 2013 -- Does Final Cut Pro X 10.1 render faster on Mac Pro towers with Dual AMD GPUs? What about Motion 5.1?
    Things to keep in mind:
    The Radeon R9 280X we used was 'un-flashed.' It booted OS X fine but there was no startup screen. Also, when we checked the speed of CPU-to-PCIe-to-CPU communication, it appeared to be running in PCIe 1.0 mode instead of PCIe 2.0. However, unless the GPU intensive app saturates the PCIe 1.0 bandwidth, it will not run any faster in PCIe 2.0 mode. http://barefeats.com/tube12.html

  • If Mountain Lion comes pre-installed on my machine, how can I get the OS discs if it's only available via download?

    Had someone ask a very good question, I think.
    If you buy a new Mac that has Mountain Lion pre-installed on the machine, you are able to download updates as they come out; however, you can't necessarily download the Mountain Lion installer via the App Store since it came already installed on your computer.
    So my question is, how can you get a OS disk/drive of Mountain Lion if your computer fails? I know Apple has the Recovery drive, and even the Internet Recovery drive, along with Time Machine and whatever else, but what if none of these options are available to recover the computer?
    I suggested to the person to clone their hard drive using the 30-day trial of Carbon Copy Cloner. That way, they have a bootable image with the OS already available in case they run into this option. BUT, what if that isn't even an option? How does one go about recovering their computer if no OS disc of Mountain Lion is available?
    I haven't been able to find anything about workarounds besides the methods I mentioned above, so please tell me if I am missing something.

    you can't necessarily download the Mountain Lion installer via the App Store since it came already installed on your computer.
    Not true. You can go to the Mac App Store and download the installer
    (from the link that WALTER-MILANO-ITALY posted above)
    Install OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion
    If you completed your installation of OS X, your installer may have been removed after your successful first login to OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion.  Mac App Store's Purchases page should show Install OS X as being "Installed", and disallow its download, when viewed from a computer running OS X.
    To redownload the installer on a computer running OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion, press and hold the Option key while you click the Purchases tab. If the button to the right of the Install OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion item doesn't change to "Install" and allow you to download OS X, use Spotlight to search for "Install OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion" on your computer.
