Question about which RAM to buy!?

justin123 · 04-21-2007, 02:36 PM

Hi! I had a question on which type of RAM I should be buying. My motherboard is a PC Chips M935LR with a chipset that is SiS 650.

this is the ram im looking into buying: http://cgi.ebay.ca/1GB-PC-2100-DDR-2...QQcmdZViewItem

Will it be compatible with my motherboard and chipset? Will my computer be able to accept the high density type of ram?

Thanks!

Here is a good site that scans your system and recommends the best ram for it...

I Have done that scan from crucial but it doesnt say wheather it will take high density or not.

Hi,

If in doubt, assume it will only take low density. Because that RAM is not a reputable brand, it is not safe to assume that it is low density RAM.
