    Hi all, just a quick question.

    I am looking to upgrade the RAM on my laptop with 1GB of RAM. Its PC2700 DDR 200Pin RAM. I have tried komplett and crucial, and Komplett seem to be the cheapest (50% cheaper) but are unfortunately out of stock. Anyone got any other suggestions of where to get cheap RAM?


    Thanks
    Brian

    offtek.co.uk & crucial.com are also good resources, if you want an Irish supplier try shop4memory.com

    SO-DIMMs aren't :)
    And 4GB is still quite a lot compared to the average you get these days.

    Also, what OS are you using? If it's 32-bit the whole 4GB may not be available to you.

    it's vista 32bit,i know it will go max of 3.2gb but i will just upgrade it anyway,since they work better in dual channel - based on what i think they are cheap to get.i probably will wait till next year then.

    thought i can get them for about 40-50euro,again,we are in the ripoff EU zone :(

    anyway,i found that dabs.ie has the better deal than those websites mentioned above,crucial/corsiar 2x2Gb pc2-5300 laptop ram is 60euro including postage,i prefer them to g-skill etc brand
