Ive read that crucial only sell low density rams, then the email from the 1st seller recommending that i buy the second product, the difference there was that it was low density, ill wait for the seller that im intending to buy off, see if he can confirm if it works, otherwise im buying it anyway. :)

Did you buy anything yet?? IF not then look at getting something on the cheap....

Kingston, Mushkin, Corsair, and G.Skill all make decent enough RAM for your machine!!! :)

Good luck with whatever you get!!

After looking at this

PC Chips M848A Motherboard - Reviews, Features, and Prices $40 - $40 at DealTime

The memory section shows:

Memory
Memory Type DDR SDRAM

Number of Memory Slots 2 x 184 Pin DIMMs

Supported RAM speeds 400 MHz • 333 MHz • 266 MHz • 200 MHz

Max Supported RAM 2 GB

and im looking to buy this one later on:

1GB PC2700 LOW DENSITY DDR SDRAM 333Mhz 184p PC MEMORY on eBay (end time 13-Sep-09 02:19:50 BST)

What do you say :)?

ive looked throught he motherboard manual online and it doesnt say anything about low density ram or high density ram.

 

[dan-ger-ous]

Or this:

1GB Kingston PC2700 DDR RAM 333 Tested & Warranty on eBay (end time 26-Sep-09 21:06:44 BST)

(haha - speaking of uncertainty lol, abit confused about which one to chose.)

 

[dee]

how much that costing dan

 

[dan-ger-ous]

Im not thinking of getting the second one, but the first one which is new:

1GB PC2700 LOW DENSITY DDR SDRAM 333Mhz 184p PC MEMORY on eBay (end time 13-Sep-09 02:19:50 BST)

Im pretty sure that it will work for my machine, question is its a non-retail RAM but the seller is a power seller with good feedback, so i dont know if i should buy that non-retailed RAM from the above link, costing me about £18.

 

[dee]

[dan-ger-ous]
