depend of motherboard feature if it onyl 1333mhz you ad toput so while there is 1600mhz compatible oh well il show you a review to help you

source = http://www.anandtech.com/memory/showdoc.aspx?i=3053&p=7
not so bad at all 1333mhz but people keep say for money 1600mhz worth more and i guess so how ever it shoudl defeat any DDR2 more ram will only allow 2-3fps more. + half loading time & task switching &
marcthpro

Thanks that helps ... I think I got either an OCZ or a Corsair. I'll check exactly the brand and post it later

You're pretty safe with 2GB of ram, but I would recommend 4GB just to be set for future games that require more power. Also, DDR3 is a little early because DDR2 is not at all outdated and won't be for a while. I bought 4GB's of Corsair Ram (DDR2) from Newegg.com for $66 (after rebate).Link1515

mine is $105 and I think $95 after rebate ... I would have gone for 4GB ddr2, but the motherboard supports ddr3, I wasn't sure if it is possible to put a ddr2 in there.

What Mhz for ram 1066 or 1300 or 1600mhz ? only 1600mhz make much a differance vs DDR2 that is worthing is money ? you get +5fps to top 10fps in 1920s1200 vs ddr2 800mhz or only 3-5fps. against DDR2 1102 stable mhz forceflex II marcthpro

I'm afraid it's only 1333 MHz

I wasn't sure If the motherboard would support ddr2 .. it happened so fast ... so I went for the ddr3 ... very expensive :?

HI ... I have just bought a new PC, and I am a bit worried cause I have only 2 GB of ddr3 ram ... So I have this question ...

Is there any application/Game that requires more than 2 GB at the moment ? and when do you think will games require or recommend 4GB ?

Thanks in advance.

[QUOTE="raahsnavj"][QUOTE="linkinworm"][QUOTE="raahsnavj"]Well, like all electronics, they can't run without the smoke in them. So if you see smoke, it is leaking and if it loses too much smoke it will quit functioning altogether. If you open your computer and see all the small battery like cylinders in there connected to the mother board... that is what holds the smoke. When you took it to the electrician, they plugged the leaks and put more smoke in it so it would work again.raahsnavj

what are you on about the capacitors aint filled with smoke, they store energy. honestly smoke? why would you need to hold smoke?.

Can you explain to me then why once a piece of electronics won't work anymore if the smoke comes out? I'm sorry, the smoke is what makes it work. Well, smoke and the eletricity that excites the smoke into action. When the TC plugged it into too much electricity the smoke got too excited, burst a storage container and began to leak. Thus the problem.

Actually there are no smoke stored at all in any electronics devise .... here is what happens:

when there is a high voltage across a certain wire or interconnect, the current increases ... since the Voltage = current X impedence = current x resistance ( fn the impedence is pure real ) ... any way when there is too much current ... the wire or the electrical component heats up and like anything gets too much heated up ... it burns and smoke comes out as result.

The capacitor is an energy storage component .... and it is used in setup circuits to mentain uniform power distribution across an IC or Chip or a device ... also it is a used in the design of filters ( A famous circuit block that allows the passage of a waves of certain frequencies and block others), and have many other purposes ... There is no smoke stored or anything of that sort.

As a conclusion .. the smoke comes only from overheating

You win the pocket-protector award... Sorry for the April's fools joke. As my computer architecture professor always said jokingly, "Remember, if the smoke leaks out it won't work anymore."

he's a smart professor :D .... good one by the way ... what you wrote was shocking :)

A couple of days ago i posted this topic .....

http://www.gamespot.com/forums/show_msgs.php?board_id=909104101&topic_id=26315598

To save you the reading, here what it was about ... My cousin's new Wii from abroad got fried when he connected the devise in a 220 volts socket instead of using adapter to lower the volt to 110 .... The machine made a pop, and smoke scent covered the appartment.

We sent the Wii to a professional electrical engineer ... he just changed some components in the adapter ... and it worked ?

Thanks for those who helped, and thanks for Nintendo's high voltage safety measures :)
