Here's the short & skinny:
We've got a year-old Gateway P4 with 128MB of RAM onboard. Santa didn't bring me the 512MB kit I'd hoped for (but I did get a schweet GeForce4 Ti 4400 128MB graphics card) so I'd like to know if I have any options regarding what RAM I can use.
Gateway's terribly unhelpful support site seems to suggest that 800mhz RDRAM RIMM modules are my only option for additional memory.
Right now, 512MB of that kind of RAM runs about $300...but I see all kinds of other forms of RAM going for loads less. Am I screwed?
Getting a new comp is not an option at the moment...my wife will be getting a new computer for her personal use, and it's long past due for her to have one. Her current comp is a slow-ass laptop running Win98, which she bought about 4 years ago. Thing takes about 5 minutes to even boot up, so she deserves getting one of her own; then I can fill up our "shared" one with AMV stuff.
