burdell1 old hand Registered: 14/01/2002 Posts: 931 Loc: Minnetonka, MN	Where would be the cheapest place to buy 512 mb of PC-133 memory? (I've tried pricewatch, but thought there might be some place else to try too.)

Do you want the price quoted inclusive or exclusive of all the dicking about you'll have to do if you buy el cheapo memory and it's flaky? If "inclusive", the cheapest place is probably www.crucial.com. Peter

Buy it from someone reputable, such as Crucial. And, when you do buy memory (cheap or not), run memtest86 on it before you do anything else. _________________________ -- roger
