Prem18,

Unfortunately, you cannot add a discrete video  card. The system shipped with onboard graphics.  Below are the memory specs.

Memory module connectors Two user-accessible SODIMM connectors
Memory module capacities 2 GB, 4 GB and 8GB
Possible Memory Configurations 1 GB, 2 GB, 3 GB, 4 GB, 6 GB and 8 GB
Memory type DDR3 1333 MHz SODIMM (Operates at 1066 MHz)
Minimum memory 1 GB
Maximum memory 8 GB

Memory

The Inspiron N5050 system supports dual-channel DDR3 SDRAM with memory speeds of 1333 MHz. At 1333 MHz, the memory offers a significant increase of memory performance over previous platforms.

 

  • The memory solution is implemented in a dual-channel configuration, allowing the system to have twice the memory bandwidth while using the same memory technology.
  • Memory modules must be installed as a perfectly matched pair to take advantage of the dual-channel memory bus. If not a matched pair, the system's memory bus operates in a single-channel configuration.

Memory Configuration

 

Inspiron N5050 has two user-accessible SODIMM sockets, both slots can be accessed after removing the keyboard  This link opens a new browser window.. Basically, when both DIMM connectors are populated, the system has optimum dual-channel performance unless channels A and B have different amounts of memory.

Inspiron N5050 DIMM Configuration
Slot A Slot B Total Memory
1024 MB None 1024 MB
2048 MB None 2048 MB
1024 MB 2048 MB 3072 MB
2048 MB 2048 MB 4096 MB
4096 MB None 4096 MB
4096 MB 1024 MB 5120 MB
4096 MB 2048 MB 6144 MB
4096 MB 4096 MB 8192 MB

Prem18,

There really isn't much you can upgrade in this computer. Also, Windows 7 would probably run better on this computer.
