Dell 420SC memory question

[dheffer]

Hey,
I was just wondering if this was the right memory to get for a Dell 420SC. I know that the stock ram is ECC, but I'm just going to rip that out and throw it on eBay. Here is a link - http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-145-526&depa=1
Let me know, this seems like a great deal.

this may help you decide:

crucial.com

Unfortunately, crucial costs ~3x as much, and I definitely don't want ECC
The only option is two and only two sticks of 512mb
Im pretty sure that you can only install two sticks at a time, but I think this may work

That stuff works fine. Good deal too.

sorry, but i was giving you that link so you can see what type fits the dell, then do a search on that type and save there. (thats what i did with my dell. Found what type works, did a pricegrabber on it then got 2 sticks of 512 for like 150 bucks)

laterz

Thanks
The only ram it says it supports are sticks of 512mb ECC, which I know aren't true.
I'm pretty sure that the corsair will work just fine.
Thanks for all the help everyone
