How long did it take you to find it? Unless you specifically search for a RAM module with those parameters you are much more likely to find a CL4 rating.

Let's look at the reviews

The reason that I wanted to buy this ram is because the advertise(ment) said Integral. When it was delivered to me I found that it was easy-ram brand. NOT integral.

So we are talking about some dodgy below-standard RAM.

Now try finding PC2 5300 rated less than CL5.


Just give it up...you know that I am right.

calm down first thing to do is redo procedure,and refit old memory, if l/t works relief.....did you earth yourself before touching memory [ touch rad valve metal] use 1 or 2 memory sites to doble check right memory
example...[from 7dayshop.com]

A small outline dual inline memory module (SODIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). SODIMMs get their name because they are smaller and thinner than regular DIMMs. The gold pins on the bottom of the SODIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a SODIMM are not connected.

Module Size: 1GB
Package: 200-pin SODIMM
Specs: DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V • 128Meg x 64 •
LAST HAVE YOU FITTED PROPERLY
all best just upgraded memory on daughters acer.

Already indicated to have been done in the first post. Disappeared since then.

Can't grow tired of that. Do you think the fact that you finding a single 2GB example in the USA, proves me wrong? :rotfl:

Please, we are looking for 1GB in the UK.

You have just proved my point.

That ordinarily, the majority of PC2-5300 will be rated at CL5, as indicated by what is available on the Crucial website, as well as the majority of PC2-4200/4300 being rated at CL4.

So using the machine in question, it would be advantageous to use the recommended PC2-4200/4300, rather than the PC2-5300 module recommended by Crucial.

Even if you were able to find lower latency PC2-5300 in the UK at the same price as bog standard PC2-4200/4300, there would still be no advantage.
Even in that case it would be better to seek out lower latency PC2-4200/4300.

Don't insult your own intelligence by further arguing. I'm already making it child's play for you to understand.
