Different RAM slots

brendang333 · 09-18-2008, 07:02 AM

Hi,

I have a dell GX240, and I want to upgrade the RAM. I've noticed there are 2 slots for RAM, (2 x 168 Pin SDRAM DIMMs).

My question is, when I bought the machine, one slot was taken and one wasn't, what is the difference between the two? is the other one 133mhz speed as well? or does it make a difference?

thanks in advance,
brendan.

your ram deturmines the speed (your motherboard can limit it though) if one slot can put out 133 the other can to
