A7N8X Deluxe: DDR Brand and Grade Advice Requested
I am upgrading from an Abit KT7A-Raid. There is a computer show this weekend
and I will likely pickup an A7N8X Deluxe (v2). To save a few bucks I will be using the Athlon 2100+ Palomino from the old board (for now) but because the old moboard took SDRAM I will be needing some DDR As with the cpu I am looking to save a few bucks with the ram. I intend to get two 256MB sticks but would like some advice as to brand and grade. I have never been much into overclocking.so I figure I don't need the "best" ram but past compatibility troubles with the cheaper ram has me a little gun shy. Any recommendations for a good brand and grade of DDR that will keep damage to the beer budget to a minimum? Any advice appreciated |

This company has a great reseller rating and has a Yahoo 5 star rating. Get 3200 for stability and so you can upgrade the CPU later. $39 shipped free snai mail. Arrives in about one week. http://www.ms4me.com/mo25pc4ddrme.html ------------ When your PC gives a little they give a lot. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/disco |

Any advice appreciated He http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/forumd... 7&forumid=22 Check the first sticky. It probably won't help the beer budget. The idea with the dual memory things is to put one stick in slot 3 and one in either 1 or 2. |
