Madman 185 Report post Posted August 14, 2010 get 2x2x2 or 2x2x2x2 or 3x3x2x2 depending on price lorrr. For RAM you need to check the DDR (2 or 3, get w/e your mobo supports), speed (which is the number that follows, say for example DDR3-1600 is top speed of 1600). The other two that are less of concern are timings and voltage which dont really matter unless you have some hardware fetish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
