    Are you selling that Gb of memory? Cause if not you could put it towards the new stuff.

    You still looking for 1Gb?

    I used Cube ram which is Irish made and it great.
    10year warranty. (I had 768Mb PC133)

    The generic stuff could be ok but i'd try get the Cube or Samsung if ya can.

    Will be selling a 128 and 256 stick
    The crucial 256 and 512 are nailed by a mate.
    Think 512mb would be sufficent for 133.
    Will have a look at Cube.
    10 yr and in ireland isnt a bad thing :)
    thx

    Cube ram prices
    64MB is €49
    128MB is €95
    256MB is €165

    Those prices are from Planet PC, Waterford. Email sales@planetpc.ie if ya want some.
    They didn't have an 512MB prices cause they sold none since March.

    Maybe purchase a mobo that takes DIMMs and DDR(like one of those ELITE boards), put in your pc100 RAM and whenever you get the funds upgrade to DDR.

    Didnt notice that Crucial 256 for 72.
    I like Crucial seemed reliable.
    Im gonna stick with the board KK266plusR can take Xp2100 so its kinda future proofed.
    Just shouldnt have bought all that p100 ram for the ECS board i had :(

    thx for replies.

    If you have a CPU with PC66 RAM and you were to upgrade to a CPU with PC133 RAM would it be enough to change all the RAM or would you have to change the motherboard?
