December 27, 200421 yr most of the time if u don't have a name brand comp like gateway, dell, or any other type u can use what ever ram u want the 2700 is just like when ur looking at video cards it really doesn't matter which one u get.
December 27, 200421 yr i'll look for some cheaper pc2100 ram 512mb, hopefully it will boost up my performance 8)
December 27, 200421 yr ok im probaly getting two sticks of 256 PC3200 (uberfast FSB ) i got my eye on corsair, i hear its the best. corsair is best right? or should i get kingston?
December 28, 200421 yr Author my first stick of ram was corsair, and yes, its the best. I bought the two sticks of kingston today, FA now loads in like 15 seconds (used to take about 45)
December 28, 200421 yr how much increase in fps do you get??? do you think it would be worth it for me the get another 512 even if it is pc2100 :?
December 28, 200421 yr ok what do you think of this. . . http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-141-173&depa=0 is that crap because its some company i've never heard of, or is it kinda up there with kingston and corsair? it was the cheapest only $60 so i thought it was nice, kingston was like $70 but i could pay the extra if its worth it, it seemed to have all the same features though :?
December 28, 200421 yr http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-144-309&depa=0 That's what I want. Go Geil!!! 8)
December 28, 200421 yr looks nice haya :wink: just a quick question, which one of these would be better. . . 768mb ram @pc2700 or 1gb ram@pc2100 ??? or are they about the same?
December 29, 200421 yr ok i hate to sound picky and sorry for the triple post but i really need to know the answer to my question because I'm going to buy some more RAM tomorrow and I don't know which option i'm better off with, for those of you who can't see above here is my question again which one of these would be better. . . 768mb ram @pc2700 or 1gb ram@pc2100 ??? or are they about the same?
December 29, 200421 yr Author youre only buying ram to be better than me arent you! i would go with the 768 mb of PC2700, cause that would bring you over 1gb, and thats enough
December 29, 200421 yr i would go with the 768 mb of PC2700, cause that would bring you over 1gb, and thats enough i think you missed my point. . . i'm either gonna buy 768mb of pc2700 and take out what i have cause its pc2100, my mobo only supports 1 gig anyway. Or, i could add to what i have and put on another 512mb of pc2100, which is what im going to do. Thanks for the help Macgyver, I'd listen to you over Boja any day :wink: i don't think the speed matters as much as total quantity anyway, but this was some nice reassurance how do i tell how many pins i need, cause i see that i can buy 184 pin DDR ram and 240 pin ram anyway Boja, yes i'm doing this just to have more ram than you *EDIT* ok, found the RAM that I have, its 184 pin. . . http://www.memoryx.net/p5300g.html but what im probably gonna buy is either this. . http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-145-511&depa=1 or this. . . http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-141-173&depa=0
December 29, 200421 yr just make sure its DDR, not SDRAM, not DDR2 btw its not dance dance revolution :roll:
December 29, 200421 yr I got myself 512MB of DDR3200 RAM, must say, that and the 1600MHZ upgrade and new motherboard brings FA to over 200 FPS
December 29, 200421 yr k im gonna buy this soon, hopefully i will get over 200fps in FA also 8) http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-141-173&depa=0 couldn't find anything cheaper so this looks like the way to go
