Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted August 2, 2009 Area Representative Share Posted August 2, 2009 Roger, How would I know what would be suitable? BTW: I have tried both the "llok up the spec" and "analyse the system" type approaches without success in the past. Democratic dissent is not disloyalty, it is a positive civic duty.

Roger Ford Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hmm, you could count the number of pins on the memory sockets, or check to see what's written on the existing RAM (if anything). Or just send me whatever you do know about the existing system and I can make a guess. Do you know what processor you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 You could also try running CPU-Z from here: http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php It's rather less complex to run than the "Memory Configurator" type applications from the memory manufacturers. Send me screenshots of the "mainboard" and "memory" sections ( roger dot ford at gmail dot com ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul McKenzie Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I find this scan very useful: http://www.crucial.com/uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 Any luck with CPU-Z or the Crucial scanner, GJT? Will put them on ebay if no interest here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billyboy Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Roger - Fancy a trade with anything I have in for sale? here OR here? Don't need any ram at the moment But going 64bit so could always add to my 2 gig 800ddr2 with your 4 gig? Just a thought..... Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 Billyboy, nothing of interest there I'm afraid. 6GB would be good, but most motherboards only have four slots - and mine would need all of them. That's why I'm selling - I bought 4 x 2GB for a total of 8GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billyboy Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 ☹️ Worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 Finally got around to putting these on ebay - got £67! Sometimes it pays to delay - RAM prices have really gone up recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
