Dimension 4600 memory upgrade

Sorry if the question might sound stupid or amateur but I have asked the same to two Dell online chat specialists and they have not been able to give me a straight answer... Well it might be against the house policy to help customers with questions concerning products Dell use to build computer with so I am turning to the real specialists!!!
 
Could someone tell me if I can use a pair of Samsung PC2700  M368L6423ETN or M368L2923BTN memory to upgrade my Dell Dimension 4600 (it uses a pair of Samsung M369L3223ETN-CB3, 256MB PC2700 CL2.5 at 333Mhz ). I would think I could but I am not sure.
 
Please help!

The best vendor for memory, that's guaranteed to be compatible with your 4600 system with a lifetime warranty, is here.

Personally, I use Crucial, they have excellent service and stand behind their products. Crucial has two European websites you can buy from.

Thx shesagordie,

I have moved to Europe and it´s not so easy to find stuff here and to have it shipped from the USA leads to customs retaliation. I found a pair of 512MB M368L6423ETN for about $120 in England instead of $460 from Dell european website and I thought since my PC came with Samsung memory it was not a bad idea to upgrade with the same stuff. If you think Crucial is the way to go I will check it out.

Hi
 
Buddy a straighforward reply to this is that your Dell Dimension 4600 machine supports memory of 333 and 400 MHz frequency that is PC2700 and PC3200. You can install either of 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB of either PC2700 or PC3200,  Unbuffered, NON-ECC RAM. The make of the RAM is not a restriction. Both the memory modules you mentioned are compatible with your machine and you can go ahead to buy any one of them.

THX to both of you for valuable infos, now I feel much more enlighted. I have checked the european Crucial website and it looks like a serious company with great products and still at decent price.
