Need someone to look at screenshot and advise , (memory question).

Both seem to be identicle even the item number I think its a mistake so I would choose the lowest priced one that way if it is a mistake you will get it at half price :)

They actually have different part numbers (CT8805811 vs CT8806428). The images have the same number, 13160).

The second one might actually be the price for a kit of 2 matched modules (2x17.99 = 35.98) while the first is for only one module.

If you try to put either of them in your cart, you get an error message so their site is totally messed up!

A quick call to Crucial should sort it out.  

The reason i highlighted two of the selections is because those two have a circle with a line through them  and the other selections don't .  Was just curious why .

On another note,  to achieve 16 total MB of ram i need a quantity of  2 is that right ?  They can be used along with the ram that came with the computer you say?

Thank you very very much.

Thank you ,  purchasing two of them would work right along with the memory the computer came with am i correct ?

It should, but I try to avoid mixing memory types.

You like to avoid mixing different memory types huh ?  Thats just great really great , nothings easy anymore , i live Murphy's law by the way .

Dell Memory is probably double the price is my guess , dammit man , i just can't win.

Thanks for the response

Hey, you asked. :emotion-1:

Memory's inexpensive enough these days. I have an OptiPlex 9010 which I built from bits sourced through eBay. Originally it was using a matched pair of budget 4gb G.SKILL sticks, but I wanted to max it out so I replaced it with two matched pairs of budget 8gb G.SKILL sticks. It has been perfectly stable. (Although Crucial is recommended, I have been using G.SKILL.)

Is the (CT8806428) # FOR $35.99 each the correct one ?   I would need to purchase two sets and i should be good to go is that right ?

Thank you Sir

Hang on a nanosec...

You said you have 8 MB, but you probably meant 8 GB. You have 4 RAM slots, so how is that 8 GB installed now? 4x2 GB or 2x4 GB ??

If you have 4x2 GB, you'll have to remove all 4 modules. The only supported RAM configs are 8 GB, 16 GB, 24 GB, 32 GB, and 64 GB of DDR4-2133 RAM, so 2x2 GB + 2x4 GB (12 GB total) is not supported.

If you have 2x4 GB now, you can just add another 2x4 GB to get 16 GB total.

I don't know what CT8806428 is. Their site doesn't say what size that module is. If you need 4x4 GB, you're probably looking at 2 of the CT7926622 2x4 GB kits.

You should contact Crucial directly and ask for specifics on any modules you're interested in. Their site is all messed up and impossible to understand.

It shows 4 slots 2 banks of two for 8 GB total.

Thank you very very much , i appreciate everyone's help . Yes, i really am this stupid when it comes to this stuff.

I'm back ,  when you say "one" kit you mean just the one kit for $17.99 ?  I didn't know it comes with "two" memory sticks but thats what i need since i have two open slots.

Thank you

I don't know what that $17.99 item is, but I doubt it's 2 RAM modules because it's way too cheap. It's more likely ONE 2-GB module.

You need to order one that says "8 GB Kit (2 x 4GB)" such as CT7926622 for $57.99.

Strongly encourage you to call Crucial directly and discuss with them. I take no responsibility if you order the wrong modules.
