"Ram prices"

blimy I was just cheaking ram prices , cause i need more 266 ram, crucial memory 128 £22 256 £43 . Prices have really dropped again

The origonal P4 boards only used RDram. I believe you have to upgrade in pairs and any empty slots need to have a crim inserted in to it

Silly Intel Boards eh, Arn't there slots for SDram? I thought they normally had both, might be worth your while to have a peep into your case.

I've got a P4 1.5ghz and 128mb RAM

I really need more RAM but PC800 RDRAM is so expensive and its the only sort that works as i have the original chip set so i have been told

Yes it was very low then went right up just after Christmas now its dropped way back down again and likely to stay there for a couple of months at least so they say ;0)

Also, bah sorry I forgot to put this in...

I've been trying to get a little cash together for the summer so i can try Linux out, i've been wanting to use it for a quite a while, it looks very cool + it will hopefully be cool to learn about servers...etc not to mention I want to learn php so i'm hoping to do that as quick as possible so i'll probably spend quite a while indoors this summer although i'm hoping to be working through it anyway.

In other words, i'm hoping to spend a bit more time than usual this summer...guess i'm just a weirdo..good prices for me!!

also, 60Gb hdd (IDE) 7200rpm £53...
And thats without any tradesman discounts, and great customer services.

I'm pretty sure they were selling 256Mb of DDR for around £25 last Christmas which is when I bought mine, not sure about the exact price i've got the invoice somewhere, cost me around £50 though, very nice price although I still havn't used it :D

about 5 months ago its been going down since for two reasons one was a merger collasps the other is its summer time and normally quiet slow this time of year ;0)

When did you get your other ram though? I'm pretty sure they didn't just cut it in half one day, more like 2/3 stages.

yesterdays ram was just £22.20 for 128mb the first lot i got with my motherboard was £41. So it is very close on to half.

Half price? I don't think it's gone that far but it's certainly dropped quite a bit, 256Mb of DDR was £70 in February! it's a very reasonably price now.
