| 341837 | 2005-04-05 07:13:00 | Hmm, according to the Gigabyte site SIS650 Chipset support up to 3 "Un-buffer" Double-sided DIMM DDR266/200. Please only use "Un-Buffer”DDR SDRAM to evaluate memory capacity of the motherboard. So no I would say it'll only work with 200/266 ram. Anything faster it may fail to boot at all. |

| 341838 | 2005-04-05 07:14:00 | As just stated.. short answer yes..... However, there are 2 types of Giga-Byte GA-8SIML motherboard.. Giga-Byte GA-8SIMLH & Giga-Byte GA-8SIMLP. The GA-8SIMLH was made to support the PC2700 DDR RAM you are thinking of installing. The other mobo will run it, just not at the speed at which 2700 is capable |

| 341839 | 2005-04-05 07:30:00 | Thanks everyone ... I'll see if more RAM makes much difference to this old thing. I'm not really up on technology, so i'm very grateful for the advise given by people like you .... :thumbs: |

| 341840 | 2005-04-05 07:54:00 | I think it is definitely GA-8SIML . . . it is on both motherboard ID & Name . I suspect that the place I bought it off put the slowest and least amount of RAM in it that they could . Under the "Memory" sub-catagory, it suggests installing more memory to improve application performance . |

| 341841 | 2005-04-05 09:02:00 | Ah ok, the info I got was from the Giga-byte site is all, if its old as you say; I would say it was the slower model then. | Myth (110) | ||
