Intel P4 compabitle RAM ?

ChicoMendez

Hi there,
I have a PC that is about 10 years old.

It's a Dell Intel Pentium 4 2.80ghz with 512mb RAM !

I'm looking to upgrade the Ram and would like to stick in 2-4 RAM . Can anyone advise on what would be compatible ?

Tnx

why do you want it on an old pc like that and do you know if it's ddr or rd ram.

I bet ram will cost as much as that pc m8.

€40 for 4GB DDR2.

€86 for 4GB DDR.


Really, it's not worth it trying to force that much RAM into an obsolete machine. It just won't do any good. Better off spending €106 and getting this instead:

Item|Price
Total build cost: €105.69 (inc delivery Free!)
ASRock S1155 Intel H61 DDR3 mATX|€42.74
Intel Celeron G530 2.4GHz LGA1155 2MB|€43.36
Kingston 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR3 1333MHz DIMM 240-pin CL9|€19.59


It will completely obliterate the Pentium.
