So, me being the friendly nice guy that I am, I decide to help my roommate upgade his computer. (His 128 mb of Ram was just not cutting it on BF1942). Time for a memory upgrade- easy enough, right?
Wrong.
Turns out his computer uses RDRAM... which is expensive as crap. I was wondering if anyone here has ever used rambus before, and if so, could give me any shopping hints to pass along to my hopeless roomie. Also, Do you have to install it in pairs? he has two 64 mb sticks in right now, with two empty slots (except for the crimms, of course). For example, could he purchase a 128 mb stick, use the two 64 mb sticks, and just leave one crimm in, giving a total of 256 mb of memory? or would it have to be 4 64 mb sticks?
Thanks in advance-
Zeus
