I did say retail price for a brand new one :)

SDRAM isn't as cheap as it used to be anymore.
yeh i remember paying around $50 or less for a 256mb stick now its almost $100 depending on the brand.

DDR-SDRAM is DDR-RAM!!!
The more correct name for DDR-RAM is DDR-SDRAM!!!
but it's too long and takes more space!!! so... it's shortened :p

but MB which supports DDR doesnt usually support the normal SDRAM, and if it does it usually has separate slots for the DDR and the normal SDRAM.
u can check the MB manual for that.. which should also be available for download.

brand-new modules of the normal SDRAM cost more than the DDR-SDRAM with the same density (capacity or MBs).. just introducing the term density ;)


umm does your MB installation CD come with a program with the word "DMI" in it, then it's the tool to view things like type of RAM... etc... you can do it with other programs like the one u used but the DMI thing is one option.
