Upgrading early 2011 iMac

so i'm trying upgrade memory in imac bought in 2011, before last refresh. seems there 4 memory slots, standard build unit apple comes 2 slots full (2x2gb). best way upgrade memory? i'm thinking want double @ least, i'm not sure how proceed since first time upgrading mac lineup.

hear it's pretty simple upgrade memory. picking brand best, , configuration little daunting appreciated. thanks!

best way add additional 2 x 4gb make total of 12gb. thats enough things want , not wasting/removing existing ram....see here:
