They wanted $180 for a stick of 512mb. You are better off getting DDR ram, but you would have to get a new mobo and all that other shit, so in that sense, you would need a whole new computer basically.
See, now no one is thinking logically! I thank you guys for your information, but you are saying,buy a new computer which costs over 1000 dollars, just because I want more RAM? That doesn't make sense when I have a computer that works perfectly fine, runs games, and I just want to buy more RAM, I'd much rather pay the 150 dollars for 512MB. Thanks again guys!
You wont have to spend $1000 to get a new pc, just a new mobo and ram. You can keep everything else you have, monitor, video card, sound card, shit like that. instead of blowing $189 on old ass RAM, you can spend about the same to get better RAM and a better mobo.
