[Resolved] Memory Suggestions

I was looking here. What's the best < $40?

I don't know much about memory, except that I forget things often. And that's not even the right kind of memory.

Help?

PC100???

is your computer really that old?

I don't know, that's what I was told to get. :confused:

How can I tell what type of memory my computer can run?

I honestly can't remember! My memory's not what it used to be :)

Look in the manual for your motherboard. If you're too lazy to do that go here. On the left under 'Memory upgrades' select the make of your motherboard and go on from there.

What processor have you?

here are some generalizations...yes...generalizations

P2 + below = PC66/100
P3/Athlon = PC133
Athlon C 133FSB = PC2100 DDR (I think)
Athlon XP w/KT266(A) = PC2100 DDR
Athlon XP w/KT333 = PC2700 DDR
Athlon XP w/KT400(A) = PC3200DDR but most people use 2700
nForce 2 = same as KT400
P4 uses either RAMBUS or PC2100/2700 depending on the chipset...I dunno much about hte P4 side.

Thanks, guys. I'm on vacation right now, but when I get home I'll try to figure it out.
