been to long since I did any sort of upgrading with PC's


the last time was on a PIII 800 in 2000 (I think) I remember someone saying something where if you were to use DDR ram you needed to make sure that the ram amounts were the same




clearly they were talking shit



Anyhoo, thats all I needed to know
