Dell Certified Memory 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM Memory Module 2 GB 800MHz DDR2800/PC26400 DDR2 SDRAM 240pin DIMM (SNPYG410C/2G)
Limited Entry-Level Capacity
Validated by C.R. Vinoth Kumar ยท Founder & Senior Editor
8GB of total memory is extremely marginal in 2026. Windows 11 uses 3-4GB at idle, leaving very little headroom for multitasking or gaming. We highly recommend upgrading to at least 16GB, or 32GB to prevent page-file stutters.
