what was ram brand?

 

[drewdogg808]

damn...hot price on that motherboard.

 

[OmegaRed]

i was going to get the ram at cc but with no rebates, this is much better
hopefully my frys (wilsonville, OR) will have it so cheap.

 

[docinthebox]

29.99 is a good price for PC2100 but I've heard the MSI KT3 Ultra is pretty picky on RAM so I'm not sure if Fry's generic PC2100 is good enough.

Good deal on the mobo, BTW. I'm thinking of getting one myself. KT333 with onboard RAID for 79.99, can't beat that price.

Do you know if it runs XP2200+ out of the box? or do I have to update the BIOS first?

 

[cheapgoose]

frys has shitty generic ram. in general.

hope you're not oc'ing

Dear Santa,

This year for Hanukkah can i please get a Fry's on the East Coast? Preferably in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. I promise i will keep my room clean all year long and not talk back to my parents too much. I'll also cut back on killing kittens.

Yours truely,

aphexII

P.S. - Can you please send your list of naughty boys as well?

 

[CBR600F4iRed]

totally didn't mean to thread crap.

It's just that everyone around here's always talking about overclocking this, overclocking that, this frys ram just won't cut it. if you're not looking to do any of that, then congrats, you got a good deal.

For the most part, I've had good experiences using Fry's generic RAM. However, I have a stick of 256 ddr 2100 generic that I tried to use in a ECS K7S5A mobo (another Fry's special), the board absolutely refused to boot with it. I knew the RAM was good, worked in my computer MSI mobo, worked in my bro's computer FIC mobo, but for some reason just wouldn't work in the ECS board.

If it works, then great! That's a good deal especially considering how much ram prices have shot up. If you have a picky mobo, good luck finding another deal this cheap.

 

[psianime]

Thumbs up for the MSI KT3-ARU. I grabbed the last one at Fry's in the City of Industry.

 

[Oakenfold]

I hate FRYS I hate you!
Come to the EAST COAST NOW PLEASE!

 

[Epinephrine]

FYI - I had a tough time with this motherboard and Crucial memory. Windows XP would not load no matter what setting I tried. I stuck a stick of Samsung memory in it and it worked flawlessly. Just my experience....

 

[AnimEva]

great deal..

Come on Fry's you have to come to NYC. We have one of the biggest customer base here.

Gotta come to NYC

I wonder how many people actually overclock their ram...

 

[KIAman]

I just picked some up, it had LEI chips in it, but it was 7ns. I stuck it in my 8k3a and worked fine even on the most aggressive timings all the way up to 145 mhz. For 30 dollar ram, I think that is just fine.

 

[SilverIce]

Yes, more DDR for me! Count me in on that list of people that overclock their ram........wheeeeee! Thanks for the post!

 

[HappyNic]

I also picked up a stick of those $29.99 from Frys, but mine uses Infinion Chips instead, which runs really well on my K7S5a. I'm running them at Ultra setting with CL 2 settings at 138mhz along with my Mushkin 512mb. If i just use the Infinion stick (256mb) alone I can even run stable at Fast setting with CL2.5 at 150mhz for CPU/RAM. My other friend got a stick also but it's uses LEi chips instead, which really piss my friend off cause it freeze his system at even the slowest ram setting, he's going back this week for some with Infinion chips instead.

I assume this deal is dead now. Stupid Fry's. Last week, no advertisement in newspaper about this. This week, advertisement but for a "sale" of $42. bleh.

 

[Xtasy]

I am banned from frys. Stupid juvenile delinquent act. Oh well, i just can't go back to that frys. Are u sure the ram is $30? I just checked my bay area fys ad which includes the campbell store says the ram is $42! Also, on the ba ad, saw xp 2000+ oem w/ msi k7t 266 pro2a for only $150. Nice price.

 

[chimmytime]

Picked up my 256 chip today (8/23) at the Fry's in the City of Industry for $29.99. No advertisement but it is posted on their wall'o RAM.

Get caught humping the video cards again?

 

[OulOat]

I wonder what is preventing frys from expanding? They don't wanna make money? Or is it the AT effect
