What kinda RAM do I have??
 

I'm looking to add more RAM to my PC. I have a P4 1.6 GHz with 256 MB of RAM. I'm assuming I should add the same kind of RAM that I have right now.

But how do I know what type of RAM I have? DDR? SDRAM? YADDAYADDARAM? I have no clue.

Thanks for any help techies :thumbsup

Download this program:

Run it and go to the memory tab and it should tell you what kind of memory you have.

You most likely have RDRAM in a machine of that type.. which is actually pretty fucking expensive to upgrade.. sadly. :(

Edit: RDRAM = Rambus when you are looking at memory prices online or whatever.

thanks! great program!!

i've got DDR-SDRAM. thought those were two diff types, but i guess i was wrong.

Thats lucky.. much cheaper to upgrade. :thumbsup

nice useful link! thanks! :thumbsup

Probably DDR333. check the bus.

probably DDR333 or maybe DDR400

For a computer that old I woudl say DDR 266 is more likely than DDR400.

Dual channel 400 :P

The mine looks like green chips.
