Hi.

I am looking to buy some new RAM for my PC.
The problem is, that I haven't much clue when it comes to Hardware and such.

So I was looking at this.
Two GB and around 100$.

Is it any good? Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Gooners

First, you need to know what type of RAM you need. There are certain programs used to identify your RAM.

Ok, there are programs, and there are forums. We can try and help you without any difficult-to-understand software. How old is your computer, by what manufacturer and what's the model number?

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Ok, it's a Dell... You should check the Dell website, Dells are some of the hardest computers to work with (Some even have the chessis bolted shut, lol) and often use non-standard equipment.

When it comes to Dell, upgrading is almost like getting cheese from a stone. They use proprietary hardware meaning that u cant go to ur local PC shopa dn ask for a stick of RAM or a new HDD. You gotta take it back to Dell (and even then they still might not upgrade for you.... after all why spend $200 on upgrading when you can spend $2000 on a whole new system?? BASTARDS.

Stay away from Dell when it come to gaming PCs. They suck arse.

No, it's just that 2GB is pretty much the standard right now, although that's probably going to change. I think 32-bit XP can support up to 3GB of RAM and 64-bit can support up to 4GB. Either way, it'll support more than 2GB if that's what you have/want.

Exactly what SWmith said. 32-bit architecture can't support more than 3.12GB RAM without extended dynamic addressing. Well, XP isn't as bad as 98, lol, 98 only support 256MB And 95 won't support more than 96, lawls
