Hi there,
My machine is now a few years old, but I would like at least another year out of it before rebuilding the lot.
It is a P4 2.4c on an ASUS PC4800 Deluxe.
Unfortunately I got myself the complete wrong RAM due to complete ignorance surrounding timing etc. (Still know very little to be honest)
What I have is Corsair TWINXMS 3700 256MB (512MB). This has been fine, but I am now starting to notice the lack of memory especially when using Visual Studio or Nuendo.
I don't think I can just go and grab another 512mb of what I have; so do I have to trash the Corsair 3700 DIMS and put 2x512 in?
If this is the case I want to get the cheapest performance RAM I can as when I upgrade next to PCIe I want to go the AMD route and this is a little stop gap.
My chip has been running at 3ghz for most of the time; so I guess keeping it there would be nice, but if that is going to cost too much then I can sacrifice it for the RAM upgrade...
Any help on what to get, where to look would be great..
Thanks
