is it possible if I install 8gb ram on dual core e5500

Solution
what is your motherboard make and model, need that information to see if if can handle it, and what kind it will need. (is this perhaps a Dell Computer?)

To answer your question as best I can based on the of information "Will having 8GB improve the speed of your system?"

Yes it will compared to 2Gb for example as most computer operating systems use and need 4GB to preform adequately and most programs like games need 2-4gb additional ram to run themselves properly.

The CPU is only part of the specification here. But yes, the E5500 can take 8GB RAM. How much RAM you can have will also depend on:

- Your motherboard (number of slots, and maximum capacity)
- Your operating system (Windows if it is 32bit or 64bit)
