Cold_Gambler Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I'm considering shelling out for the last upgrade I can make to my rig: upgrading the RAM from 1 GB (2 X 512MB DDR) to 2 GB (2 X 1 GB) 1) is it worth it to upgrade to 2 Gigs for FB? 2) do 184 pin DDR2 Ram exist? or do I have to buy DDR? 3) Why is DDR more expensive than DDR2 for any given memory capacity? My system: XP2500+ on a A7N8X-deluxe ATI 850 pro 2 X 512 MB PC 3200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairgowrie Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Afraid you are stuck with DDR Angus if you stay with that board and rig. If you go with something like Kingston RAM you should be able to get it reasonably cheaply. 2gb would help reduce stutters. I just gave away a Barton 3000 chip to a buddy of mine and sold 2gb of PC200 of OCZ low latency ram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBloke Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I agree with Jim but would say stick to 1gb personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold_Gambler Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 Thanks again Bbloke... I've OC'd in the past but backed down over the summer- one benefit of winter is a cold computer room. Wished I'd said something, Jim! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
