Hello,
I was slightly embarrassed this past week when I ordered this ram to upgrade this motherboard for a lab server. The RAM only slightly didn't fit (maybe one tooth off), but I was perplexed because I had run this through several compatibility filters and this seemed like the right pick.
When I took the original RAM out, it looked like this, and had the description "DDR2 pc5300." I thought DDR2 and PC2 are synonymous? How can RAM be both DDR2 and PC?
In any case, I can't seem to find this particular RAM anywhere, and I'm not sure what to look for.
I found the information through the 'lshw' command in Ubuntu. Is there a chance that this is wrong? Or am I missing something obvious about the RAM I ordered?
Thanks for any information!
