| 839055 | 2009-12-13 02:10:00 | Hi Guys. I want to increase the ram in my old desktop. Currently have 512mb (2x256). Want to increase it to 1gb or more for games. Don't want to spend a lot so thought I would ask if anyone on here has any second hand chips they are prepared to sell at a reasonable price. Only has 2 slots. DDR 333 or compatable Cheers Colin |

| 839057 | 2009-12-13 05:19:00 | The games I want to play are not the high tech ones. Age of empires, Civilisation ETC. Would like to play ANNO 1404 which needs 1 gb ram. Re the mother board. The Computer is a Dell Dimension 2400 with 2.4 Mh. The Computers Manual tells me that it takes 128, 256 or 512 MB 2 slots. Maximum Ram 1 GB PC2700 (333Mhz ) DDR SDRAM or PC2100 (266Mhz) DDR SDRAM |

| 839058 | 2009-12-13 06:30:00 | I have 2 x 512MB DDR400 you can have if they will work for you. PM an address if you want them. | CliveM (6007) | ||
| 839059 | 2009-12-13 08:12:00 | In that case as it says, 2 slots for RAM. You have 2x 256MB that means you rid them both and add in 2x 512MB. | Nomad (952) | ||
