PNY - Optima 1GB PC2-5300 DDR2 DIMM Memory - D1GX53OPT Its cheap and faster than what I have. I dont really want to spend much on my system beyond what I have done but I wouldnt mind having 2 gigs of ram. Let me know what you think of this stuff. As long as it posts and runs at the advertised speed I will be happy. I dont plan on overclocking. With tax it comes out to around 90 for 2 gigs. Dave
yeah, it's ok, but personally i only use Corsair you could have a problem matching it to your current RAM the speed of the RAM isn't the problem, as with car tyres the maximum speed may be 130mph but it will function @ 40mph fine however, you can use PCWizard to discover the CAS Latency (tCL), CAS to RAS (tRCD) RAS Precharge (tRP) & Cycle time (tRAS) look at the image Edit: you have to match the settings of the new RAM to the settings of your existing RAM
Sorry, guess I should have cleared this up. I am getting two sticks of these and dumping my current ram. The two gigs of ram will be identical. It seems to be rated well on newegg and if it doesnt post then back it goes
well, yeah, it will work with no problems Edit: :doh: i should have noticed, sorry, but it's good news :good:
