what SRAM to use

[vinhnguyen_gg]

Hello,
I have the Intel DG9650T motherboard, try to insert the DDR2 and found it not to fit the slot. Turned out my DDR2 one side is 68, one side is 52, while the slot on the motherboard one side is 64, and the other is 56. Can someone help me what is going on?
Thanks,
Vinh

The DG9650T should use standard DDR2. Are you sure that the memory you have is standard DDR2?

How can I tell the different, the memory I have just say DDR2. It's HYMP512F72CP8N3-Y5 AC-C. Thanks.

Yeah, um, that is Hynix ECC server memory.
It will not work on a desktop board...

You need standard DDR2 memory.
Try some DDR2 800, cheap as dirt and it will work just fine with your motherboard.

thanks, finaly get the board to work by borrowing the memory, and the power supply. Now I have the next question regarding to the power supply.
This board said support the 2x10 power supply. I wonder the last 4 pins use for what purpose (12v, 5v, ground, and detected 2x12 power supply). My old power supply is 2x10 with a total 400w. will it be enough for this mother board?
Thanks.

If you could post your full system specs it would be very helpful in helping you to chose the proper PSU.

Very simple, all I have is the 256MB ATI-102-A924 video cadrs. Couples HD . Network cards. That is it.

FYI, it is much easier for everyone if you post the proper name for your parts rather than it's serial numbers.
The GPU you have is an ATI x1300 and is pretty low power.

With the components you list, you should have no issues running on even a junker 400w PSU.
If you have a little budget, I could recommend an Antec Earthwatts 380w as a good upgrade for you.

thank you. You have been helful a lots. I,ve been able to bring the system up....I just use the old power supply. Thanks.
