Cheap DDR memory?

unstoppable

Hi,

Can someone please suggest me where I can by some cheap DDR SDRAM from? Looking for either 256mb or 512mb to upgrade the existing shameful 256mb currently in my PC.

Thanks!

Then again it's very unlikely to be cheaper - there is still cheap DDR about if you look. For instance -

obviously you need to know what standard you need (or your PC can take)

Use the system scan or configurator here -

Then stick the results into google products (froogle) here and sort by price -

Thanks for your help mincer and computerwomen. I've identified my pc needs PC2100 DDR SDRAM.

Found this on froogle:

Not sure if it is compatible with my motherboard (i.e. not sure whether DIMM and UDIMM are different).. Can you help?

This is my motherboard:

I would say leave used Ram alone,have a look at the link as there's some 256 mb for £7.99 + pp and 512mb for £14 +pp
Read the reviews for each type of memory,i find this helps

whats the difference in ddr sdram and ddr ram? Sorry for the silly question but I had bought ram that I ended up not using. I have it on ebay now but don't know if I have advertised it incorrectly after reading unstoppables needs!
