Most new memory cards fit in all modern computers these days so no worries about fitting it in. If you ask me I would buy Kingston memory sticks.  |

True, but ! Emerald_Flag was right. Yesterday noticed my AGP motherboard wont support 2+ GIGS of RAM. SO Max RAM I can buy is 2gigs  which makes me upset, but its fine, I will go to tigerdirect I will see what they say about it. Infact I am not looking for something great now, if install FSX it will still run smoothly as it was befoire with my 1 gig, and in addition my parents for my birthday are going to buy me new system, I asked for 3 things.
Good 680i MB, 8800 video card, and 4 gigs of ram. Thats it for now, its less expensive then they wanted to buy me a whole new computer. |

Only 1 thing to remember: does your motherboard support ddr1 (which is old and outdated / slow
ddr2 which is the standard these days up until about 1 year ago
and ddr3 which is fast but expensive and makes use of directx10, i think you can get them up to 8 gig cards now, and if you have 4 of those in row, all your mates will be over to play your games which is perhaps the only downfall, cause you'll never have time to spend with your loved one (computer).
Couple that with nvidia's 8800ultra(which also you can rack up using sli) and a intel quad core extreme processor and you've got the gaming machine from hell |
