    i have hp spctre xt touchsmart 15t model 4000-ex with 4 GB ram and want to upgrade to 8 GB. As per manual there is 1 4 GB slot available on the system board under the heat sink. I have bought corsair 4 gb value select ram. When i open the laptop i am unable to remove the heatsink and it seems it is soldered or fixed. Now i am not sure if it is up-gradable or not. Please if anyone can help to clear this up.
