The link I'd seen earlier was for a different speed, unfortunately 2700/3200 is more expensive. Take a look here, David:

Order 2 off of the 512 ones, you will struggle to find them cheaper anywhere.

I did, they look OK to me and a heck of a price. Do you know what the bus speed is on the motherboard, David?

They also have branded DDR2 for half that price, unfortunately DDR is far more expensive than DDR2 as you know Rik.

During the boot process, do you see a report on the memory and speed? Otherwise, go to:

http://www.gtopala.com/

Get the freeware copy of SIW, install that and look at the memory report.

It didn't use to be that way. It's like SmartMedia cards, they used to be about £12 for 128MB. If you can find one now you'll pay four times that. SD, by comparison is around £5 for 2GB.  :bawl:

Indeed, and to be honest do you really see the difference unless you are doing heavy CGI or gaming or photoshop my FSB is 1333 and the Intel E8500 operates at that, fast enough for me

Just coincidentally I had just placed an order for 2 x 512 DDR Modules for my home machine, and 2 x 1MB modules ( Hynix ) for my computer in Spain from 7Dayshop.

The latter was cheaper !!!!!

You need to scroll down to the hardware section, David, and select the memory heading.
