looking at getting more memory for my comp at mo only 256mb,so gonna go down pc world and go bye some more now do i need DDR MEMORY OR SDRAM MEMORY
PLEASE HELP THANKS

 

Rough guess would be DDR Ram mate best check the memory stick you have in there already it should tell you whether it is DDR or SD

 

thanks for the reply on the front of the tower says
256mb DDR-SDRAM?
im confused

 

Its DDR mate, also you need to check its the right MHZ, for example the exact sticks my pc takes is pc2700 DDR 333MHZ. You need to know all 3 bits of info, get one wrong and it wont work!

 

Dont go to PC World, overpriced junk!


Use www.microdirect.co.uk or www.scan.co.uk

how do i find that out

 

You take the stick you already have, out of the PC and look at it - it will tell you on the stick the specifics of what it is. Better still, take the stick with you and ask for an identical stick

 

Try using the Belarc Advisor - www.belarc.com

It will tell you what type of memory you have, then you'll be armed when buying the upgrade.

Try aria.co.uk, they are pretty cheap, or even novatech.co.uk.
