If your laptop is in warranty, you can go to any official service center and request and upgrade.

What activities do you perform on your laptop? Perhaps 4GB is more than enough unless you play some heavy games or perform some system intensive activities.

Don't take risk & go to asus authorized service centre(check asus India site) for getting it done. As for ram,first run cpuz & post the memory details screenshot here to get better suggestions.

Broo 4 GB wasnt wasn enough a decade ago. Just running a chrome now takes up 4GB very easily.

Strange,cpu-z showing blank.Try running it as admin(right click on exe & select run as admin option). If still shows blank result for memory & spd then try this:
Speccy - Free Download check memory info.
