Always try to buy the largest single stick of RAM that you can, within reason. For instance, if your computer has two memory slots on it and you want to put 512 MB of RAM in it, you have the choice of buying two 256 MB sticks or one 512 MB stick. The 256 MB sticks may be a few dollars cheaper, but what happens if you want to add more RAM later? You're out of slots. If you have two memory slots, buy your RAM in 512 MB sizes. However, if the motherboard has three or four memory slots, you can get away with 256 MB sticks of RAM.

If the system supports Dual Channel memory, you can install single stick but the best performance is obtained by installing it in matching pairs.

Is it very much needed that I install two stick if my system supports Dual channel?]]> Wed, 17 Oct 2007 15:42:53 +0000 http://www.compaqcomputermemory.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=57&PID=138#138 http://www.compaqcomputermemory.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=57&PID=137#137 Author: Ozzie

Better option would be 1 1Gb stick. If you wish to upgrade in future will be able to... But there are some system which expects the memory to be installed in matching pairs. And those that support Dual Channel memory. In such systems memory must be installed in matching pairs. Make sure if your system needs 2 sticks at a time, If it does go for 2 512MB ]]> Tue, 16 Oct 2007 16:48:49 +0000 http://www.compaqcomputermemory.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=57&PID=137#137 http://www.compaqcomputermemory.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=57&PID=136#136 Author: cavetsky

It can take 128Mb max. Operating system i think 98 would be better with that memory..]]> Mon, 15 Oct 2007 17:47:01 +0000 http://www.compaqcomputermemory.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=56&PID=134#134 http://www.compaqcomputermemory.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=56&PID=133#133 Author: craig-bettle
