Im not good on the size bit, but check out www.novatech.co.uk or try pc world? Go in there with your ram you had with your pc, and ask what one you need. |

If you mix-match ram, it will only run as fast as the slowest stick. So if you have a pc3200 in there, it will only run as fast as the pc2100 or whatever.. Go to http://www.crucial.com and it will tell you which type is compatible, then go with the higest PC number. If you already got the pc3200, then it might be a bad stick. Try RMA'in it, and if the replacement doesn't work.. Cole will give you advice  (maybe..if he fills like it.. we ALL know how he feels about the brits..(jk))

Then both ram sticks will run at pc3200 instead of something slower, so it will be as effeciant as can be, unless you overclock it lol. Go with the pc3200, and hope the sticks aren't defective. |

1 of: Kingston ValueRAM - Memory - 512 MB - DIMM 184-PIN - DDR - 400 MHz / PC3200 - CL3 - 2.6 V - registered - ECC You bought server memory. The second link you said you got from, Non-ECC is what you need: http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs ... 71A5CA7304 Any of these will work: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductLi ... rchInDesc= |
