I want to stuff some more ram in the pc. However, I'm confused [1]. I've got (according to CPU-Z utility) PC800 (400mhz) RDRam - I've had a look round and can't seem to match this up with any of the techno babble on offer - what should I be looking for? TA! Buzby [1] not difficult to do >> Stay informed about: FOAK: Ram

Given that 512M from ebuyer is gonna set you back nigh on £200 plus VAT and p+p it would be both cheaper, and give a much greater improvement in performance to buy a new CPU, Mobo and RAM. you could probably stretch to a nice new hard disc as well. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 75 2.0 TS Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk" target="_blank">www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk</a><!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: FOAK: Ram
