Looking for Ram

[njolakoski]

Can anyone find or tell me where I can find PC3200 for cheap it has to be at least 512kb but I prefer 1Gb, instead of 512kb, please help me.

You mean 512mb right?
Try www.newegg.com

[njolakoski]

Yeah MB

[Atomic Rooster]

$84 for 512Mb at NewEgg

$90 - 512Mb at ZipZoomFly

$104 - 512Mb at Crucial

BTW, it usually improves performance if you buy 2 sticks of 256MB rather than 1 stick of 512MB. Some motherboards have a dual-channel feature and it drastically improves access speed and performance overall.

This is not true on nforce 2 systems though. For some reason Dual Channel does close to nothing improvment on nforce 2. On the other hand P4 performance greatly improves with Dual Channel.
