Hi guys, looking to upgrade RAM on my desktop but not certain which sort I need.
Have done the Crucial scanner thingy and it says:
Each memory slot can hold DDR PC2700,DDR PC3200 with a maximum of 1GB per slot.*
Can anyone recommend 2 x 1GB RAM modules that I can buy cheaply to fit this?
Cheers

The ones that Crucial recommend. If they don't work, they'll give you your money back - no quibbles.0 -
A couple of times I've found that Crucial do not have accurate details for the older stuff I usually mess about with.
Instead I've used Orca Memory Scanner, see what that throws up if you are confused.Move along, nothing to see.0 -
Thanks guys...
Yes I do know I can buy what Crucial recommend, but they are expensive and I want to know specific alternative options that I could use.

Crucial are not that expensive, especially when you take into account the free postage.0

I second play.com (Free postage too I believe?):idea:0

crucial or play, remember your quidco cashback with either....and as another well-priced alternative that I've used with 10% quidco is memorybits......Gettin' There, Wherever There is......
I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple
