Hey pbnation i just had a question about ram. i have this OLD dell computer. i want to play WoW again but it has 4 128mb ram sticks in it and i want to get like 2-3gigs. well i was looking at the Ram and its

Samsung
184 pin
RDRAM
not sure about DDR2 OR 3.
Product ID: MR16R1624AF0-CK8

Link: http://simondirect.com/store/index.p...vcep10up5ahg12

Is there anyway i could use lets say 184 pin sdram instead? like: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231047

Anything to steer me towards the right direction would be awesome! Thanks!

Newegg actually has a memory finder section on their site. You should just be able to specify what Dell model you're using and it should pull up all of the compatible ram. You could alternately just post up what model dell it is here and we could help you out better.

Memory Compatibility Tool

Oh and just so you know, you posted this in the wrong section should be in "technology" but it's all good.

If it has 128mb sticks you will definitely not get it to 2-3gb. Maybe 1gb at the most and it will be totally not worth spending the money to upgrade that old piece of ****!

edit: oh god RDram... you are totally screwed buy a new PC

You might want to look into just saving up for a new build

I would just save up and buy a new comp...

I doubt it can play wow at all to be honest. What cpu/gpu does it have?
