    Need to add additional 256MB RDRAM.
    Anybody have an online web site for this that is reputable?
    Which manufacturer is best?
    Kingston?
    Crucial?

    Thx.

    Of course, from there you need to make sure the memory is compatible with the memory in your system. That's where the fun begins.

    I dont believe Crucial makes Rdram memory. If I were you my first choice would be Samsung. If they dont make the speed you need my next suggestions would either be Corsair or OCZ Technology. I'd pass on the kingston. Beware of memory sellers on pricewatch. Lots of those companies buy the chips and use their own pc boards. Lots of quality control problems. One of the most reliable and cheapest places on the net to buy computer parts is www.newegg.com

    Crucial has top-notch service. I had a stick go bad after a couple of months, I called support, and they cross-shipped another stick. Had it the next day.

    They are very helpful if you have any questions at all.

  10. I have 512 MB of RAM. If I went higher, what kind of improvements can I expect? Im running dual Pentium that runs at 866 MHGZ.
