    I'm guessing you mean a G3-710? There are a lot of different models under the G3-710, different processors, different drives, different video cards, different amount of memory. Can you describe closer what you have?

    Here are some part number and description of some memory modules supported by this model.

    Well, memory upgrades will require you open the case, set it on it's side and push the memory sticks in. They will click into place when fully seated, but do require some force to seat. If you decide to upgrade the video card it'll be similar, open it up, pull the old card (there's a latch you have to hold out of the way, so definitely two hands) and insert the new card. Drive upgrades depend on the drive. There is an M.2 slot for SSDs that would give quite a bit of boost, especially in boot time. Again you open the case...
