will this memory fit into a KT400 mobo?
I intend to this motherboard:
Gigabyte SoA VIA KT400 ATX A (http://uk.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/...cts_GA-7VA.htm) and 2 of these memory chips: Dabsvalue 512MB 184Pin DIMM PC3200 DDR RAM Non-Parity CL2.5 (http://www.dabs.com/products/prod-in...icklinx=2CVGWS) Question Time: 1) What does 'Non-Parity CL2.5' mean in the memory chips title? 2) Will those memory chips install and operate fine in the motherboard? I ask this question because on Gigabyte's website for the motherboard, it has this list of "recommended DDR400 (PC3200) memory modules" for the motherboard: http://uk.giga-byte.com/MotherBoard/...gyGuide_37.htm Is there a chance the memory modules I buy will not work with this motherboard? Please note The manufacturer of the memory modules I intend to buy is 'Dabsvalue' which is DABS.com very own brand of hardware that is very cheap, etc. TIA! |

The Memory might work ok, but cheaper quality ram is not a good idea. Get Corsair or Kingston. Go here http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/p/parity_checking.html "fred.do" wrote in message ...

Buying cheap RAM is akin to buying a cheap PSU - it may work and work well for a while, but it will certainly cost you a lot more in the long run.
