Pls help me to decide DDR2 RAM !
-
Now I got budget $240
Option1:
But 2 X Kingston PC667 DDR2 RAM 1GB = $115 X 2 = $230
or
Option2:
Buy 1 X Kingston PC800 DDR2 RAM 1GB = $199
Which option will u prefer?
Does it worth to try PC800 ? -
Can your motherboard support PC800 chipset DDR2 Ram?
If your motherboard supports up to 667Mhz chipset DDR2 Ram, then it would be better to get just the PC667 DDR2 Ram... -
if you got alot of money to TRY it.
Then by all means.
It'll make more logical sense to get 2x1gb RAM.
2gb vs 1gb. You go figure out? -
yes, my motherboard can support PC800.
My question is why PC800 so expensive compare to PC667, it must be very fast. -
My analogy i give to myself is.Originally posted by silvercap:yes, my motherboard can support PC800.

667 Data transfers per second x 2 = 1334 million Data transfers per second
800 Data transfers per second x 1 = 800 million Data transfers per second
Btw, where can you get PC 667 Ram at 115 per piece? Intro place leh. -
there is even a cheaper one..Originally posted by M©+square:My analogy i give to myself is.

1 x pc800 ddr2 1gb = ask..
1xpc677 ddr2 1gb= 102 -
I am assuming u are going an upgrade, if so, please do take note of ur current memory configuration.
Meaning, are u going to keep ur existing memory? If so, what configuration are they in? Dual Channel? If yes, what brand is being used? Current type? You have to sort this out before your purchase or else adding a mismatch dual channel configuration, will either make ur computer cannot start or start to give you attitude problems (suddenly reboot).
Or u add on a single RAM to a dual-channel configuration, then u immediately loses ur dual channel. Dual channel doesn't work with 3 RAM configuration.
ROT is to add on RAM chips that is the similar capacity and type or totally replace the current RAM configuration. -
