I'm upgrading an old Dimension 8200 with a Pentium 4 2Ghz, and the
first thing to attend to is the memory. Currently I've got 2x128Mb
RDRAM 400 in there. I want to upgrade it to 1 gig or so. Anyone done
this, or have any suggestions at all?
I bought Samsung memory from this site 2 years ago for my 8200. To make a
long story short, I put the RAM in my sister's computer last month. She only
had 2 sticks of 128Mb. I would suggest you only add 2 sticks 256Mb and leave
in your original 256. He computer is running very well.
I would also recommend you check to see what type of RAM it is ECC or non
ECC and how many nanoseconds 40 or 45.

Get PC800 RDRAM, either parity or non-parity, whichever you can find. Parity
memory is usually more expensive. Agreed that a pair of 256MB would spruce up
the system performance a bit... Ben Myers
