NO.... you can only buy the DDR2 RAM IF your mobo supports it otherwise you will have to stick to DDR1 RAM. What mobo and chipset do you have? Generic RAM is ok and has improved over the years but personally I would rather buy a known BRAND NAME memory module such as Geil, Corsair or Kingston etc to name a few. cheers chiefnz |

They have really good prices, and as far as i have heard, only good things have been said about them. I have bought RAM for my laptop, and also an ADSL router from them, and am quite happy with both |

| 373296 | 2005-07-20 17:25:00 | I wish I'd seen those reviews of Supercheap. I paid for a 1GB stick of DDR400 memory over a month ago and haven't got anything back. Can't get in touch with them by phone and they won't reply to emails. I haven't got the time to drive from Hamilton to Auckland to throttle one of the ba$!urds. Stay clear! |
