I have a quick question, it might be a little stupid, but, I just wanted to make sure, ...

if my motherboard only supports up to PC100 type memory, if getting PC133, will that not work? malfunction? or... and if the motherboard is limited at 256MB Memory (2 x 128 MB), is there any way to add more memory without having to buy a whole new motherboard?

i think i worded the questions awkwardly, but any info will help.

thanks

RDSport323:
Yes, PC133 will work at PC100 speed ... so no worry.
Actually I'm personally using a very old motherboard with 1 PC66 memory and 1 PC133 memory. Those ram works fine on for my system. So I think you can just go ahead and grab one or two for your system.

Airborn Express just delivered it to my house. The Ram has Nanya chips, not Infineon. I put the ram in my K5 166; runs without any problem.

For those that have already received their orders, I was reading on techb@rgains.com, and someone pointed out that it MIGHT be a typo... check these SKU#s:

11428, 11426, and 03531.

If you have received your memory, is it really PC133 or PC100?



thanks for the info

If this is PC100, I'll return it. Anyone here can verify is this PC100 or PC133?

I returned mine when it was $89.95 @outpost.com.
It couldn't work well with my ASUS P2B & ABIT BXRev2 motherboard.
I think they are dumpping these crap.

So which one can overclock better? The PC100-CAS2 or the PC133-CAS3? Sounds like a lot of the time the PC100-CAS2 will ultimately go higher. Comments?

Anyone know if these will work well with the i815e chipset? I'm not sure if these were the ones someone was complaining about a while back.

I know this is not the right thread but i have one question :

Which memory is better :

1. Pc133 Cas3
2. PC100 Cas2

I ordered 2x128 of the pc133 from outpost. Someone just posted a deal for pc100 cas2 from Onvia for the same price (49.9 after rebate).

Thank you for the info!

The_Dude8:

The minimum the Athlon requires is unbuffered, 8ns, CAS3. You might double check the AMD site for the specs. As far as the receipt, I plan on using the packing slip and the printed invoice for the rebate. The rebate form states "original sales receipt or packing slip..", so I think both will do fine. At least I hope.

I'm sure some of you thought of this but for those who haven't, if you want 2 you can get them for 70 dollars!! All you have to do is send 55 dollars in flooz to one email and then 55 to another. You'll get 30 dollars free in flooz . You then have the 70 in each account needed to buy the memory. do two different orders to two different address. so far you have spend 110 for 140 worth of memory then you get 2 20 rebates if you use different addresses. So 110-40MIR 70 bucks for 256mb pc133 cl3 Valueram pretty good deal esp. if you want to put them in different systems. NOTE: you can get as many as you need for 45 if you buy in even numbers and use different addresses. Be careful though the rebate won't go to PO boxes

are these still in stock? if they are, i will try that flooz method. Also, if it has nanya chips, i'm not sure if this deal will be worth it cuz i got ram from Equalfooting a few weeks ago and it had nanya and it definitely doesn't run 133 cas3 even. So would getting the pc100 cas2 be better? thx

Hard to say if they are in stock or not. My order references a second sku# (03531) which according to the CSR is in stock and should ship out Monday. Check your order and see if it references a second sku#. If so, then the assumption is it will go through.

Mine now references a second SKU as well (03531) but my total purchase price is still the same $69.95. Hopefully this means that they are aware of an error but are honoring the error!
