Hello,

I have a new Acer mini desktop which I use as an HTPC running Win 8.
I just bought it a week ago and I still haven't registered it for mafucaturer's warranty coverage because I have to wait until the store warranty is over (otherwise they won't accept the item for return or exchange if it is registered to Manufacturer).
Anyways, it has 4 RAM slots (16GB max RAM) and only 2 so far are used (4+4GBs). If I added 2 more RAM cards to it (upgrade RAM myself), would it void the manufacturers 1 year warranty?

Thanks.

Hello fourthofjuly,

No. Not unless you just install the RAM improperly and fry your motherboard. :)
