| Used the kingston memorys upgrading different computers: dell, compaq/hp, or homemade brand, all running smoothly without problem, also no conflict with any other old 2700 memory. |

That's all it took: 5 minutes. I got this little stick of RAM in the mail, opened the package, popped it out, popped off the side of my system, popped out the two old 256MB sticks, popped in the new 1G stick, popped the side of my case back on, plugged everything back in, and pushed the case back into its place next to my desk. Unplugging and replugging everything into the back was more of a pain and took way longer than actually installing the card, and it took no work at all once it was in. My system automatically recognized the boost from the very first start, and now, it's running like a dream!
For the small cost, relatively speaking, and the minimal amount of effort it took to install, I'm wishing I would've upgraded a long time ago. For those of you who are afraid to upgrade the RAM on their system because you're afraid to crack open your system and tinker around, just remember to ground yourself (so you don't discharge a bunch of static electricity into a sensitive component), and make sure you put the card in the same way as the old one(s)....then again, you don't even need to worry about that last part, because it won't let you put it in backwards. So, if you want to inject an old system with some fresh speed for a pretty small cost, get this card, plug it in, and proceed to be amazed. |
As expected

| Made my computer run better. I upped from .5 Gig to 1.5 Gig. I'm glad I was able to get the same type of memory I already had, just in a larger size, by matching the KVR... number. |
I'm Impressed

| I bought this RAM for a PIV 1.8GHZ Dell 4400. The mobo only supports PC2100 speed. However, RAM may be backwards compatible, like in this case. It sometimes even costs less to buy faster RAM for an older computer. This is b/c it just so happens that this is what a manufacturer is optimized to produce. I used to buy alot of Samsung RAM for work b/c I know they are highly compatible and run well... pay more for guarantee of less downtime/conflicts. However, I wanted to try this for home use on my guest PC. I'm impressed that the RAM works so well, no lock ups and I noticed improvement. The price speaks for itself. |
great value, but this one is not for a laptop
