RDRAM to SDRAM

Good point. Looking for a cheaper alternative method to upgrading memory. RDRAM gets expensive. But I do eBay and there is some good deals on memory there. Thanx!

Dimension 8100
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1300MHz
128 MB RDRAM
SAMSUNG DVD-ROM SD-616
TDK CDRW161040
32MB NVIDIA GeForce2 MX with TV Out (Dell)
Windows XP w/Dual Boot WIN ME
: )

Try here to find memory.

I've never heard of one. ...And why on Earth would someone use one anyway? Why would someone want to slow their P4 system down with SDRAM??

RDRAM is only expensive nowadays if you buy it from Dell. You can get 128MB RIMMS for $35 from Googlegear.com. I bought 2 there, and they work fine.

Hi

You mentioned buying memory on Ebay, when buying them it's worth noting that Dell computers will only use the brand name modules, not genetic ones.

Awesome site, thanx. What's the difference between these two. One is 8-device the other is 16-device. I'm going to get 2x256MB. My total installed RAM will go from 128 to 640. That should help my system, huh??
