Assuming this is your PC :

This is your motherboard :

The 2 long horizontal strips which say DIMM1 and DIMM2 next to them are where the memory goes.

Thanks Obonio for your valued help could you tell me If I have to remove the left/right panel or rear first to reach the motherboard I'm a little wary of doing the wrong disassembly. Thanks again

Hi bill, Sorry for not answering your follow up.

You usually need to unscrew 4 screws around the edges of the rear, then the 2 side panels slide off. It's usually the left side (looking from the front) that lets you access the motherboard but there's no harm in removing both.
