Upgrading RAM · DIGIT-ARC

D

My old computer has Intel D845GVSR mobo.

I wish to upgrade the ram from existing 512 MB to 1 GB. The product guide states that it supports DDR 333 up to 1.0 GB utilizing 256 Mb technology.

How can I find whether I am purchasing the right kind of DDR 1 GB RAM?

Thanks in advance.

That RAM is too scarce so will cost a bomb. 1-1.5k for a 512mb stick. Instead, consider upgrading.

DDR 333MHz RAM costs around 2.3 :shock:

for that price now one can get 2*4GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM. So, consider upgrading. Else see if a 400MHz RAM can work or not by downgrading frequency to 333MHz.

to ddr3

But website states your RAM is expandable upto 2GB.

His mobo chipset doesn't supports DDR3 or even DDR2.

Yes. A 512 mb stick costs around 950 and a 1gb one costs around 1.1k.

Yes. You are right. RAM is expandable upto 2 gb.

Yes. It only supports DDR RAM.

I have some job which needs my old computer. It is running slow. So, I have decided to put a 1 gb RAM which is sufficient for me.
The manual says that the 1gb DDR should be of 256 kb type or something like that. So, I would like to know how to find that I am buying the correct RAM.

^You need DDR 400 MHz RAM, that's it. I also bought same RAM some months ago and I was ripped off due to unavailability
