"Which one's pink?"
Posts: 12,152
I currently have 256, and am upgrading and stuff.

I have a Gigabyte 7VTX motherboard.
Anyway - is it possible for me just to get a 512mb stick (that's compatible, obviously)?

It's just I rarely hear of people saying they have 768mb of RAM - it's always a gig, 512, or 256.

And also - is it worth going for over 512 when I could always just get a 256 stick to make it up to 512?

Cheers.

RIGHT.

2 of those.
I'm decided.
Don't try and dissuade me.

I've gathered that 2 of those would be better than a single DIMM, as it's DDR and stuff.

Feck sake. Finally.

Follow the compatability guide, and it will find all memory modules that are compatable with your system.

Make that 2x256 and then fit it all together.

I'd say get your 512MB, and then just put it in and try both options

So then, would I be best to get 2 256 DIMMs rather than a single 512?

And in that case (apologies for my continual postage-ness), this would be good, yes?

So all I need to figure out now is about replacing or running the new along side the slower old.

Whoo, go Azul, good guess. :D

Edit: And yes, you'll need PC2100. As I said, it's best to fit it in pairs.

Edit#2: Oh, and I have 768Mhz RAM, so it's not *that* rare. Heh.
