    Typically additional features such as audio is added with a raspberry Pi "HAT". One example is here: http://www.newark.com/pimoroni/pim138/phat-dac-for-40-pin-raspberry/dp/31AC5273?ost=pimoroni+DAC&cfm…

    A more advanced HAT from the same vendor is here:

    RAM is hardwired on the board of the Pi so you really can't increase the amount of RAM on the PI; that is unless you are real handy with a soldering iron and know how to adjust the system for added mem. Not recommended.

     

    Some folks add or increase the Swap space, however this can cause the Flash or SD card to wear out quicker.

     

    The other option is to adjust the amount of memory used between the GPU and CPU:
