PC600 memory...anyone have any?

[audtatious]

I have a old POS desktop that I'm going to give to a friend of my sisters who can't afford to buy a new PC after their old clunker bit the big one. Unfortunately the POS I have only has 128MB of PC600 memory (2ea 64MB) which makes Windows load sloooooooowly.

Anyone have 4ea 128MB pc600 cards laying around going to waste? Obviously I don't want to pay much for it

Oh my that's old memory. Sorry but I only have DDR2 ram lying around.

If you can't find any, try:

Also PC800 is way cheaper than 600, if they are compatible it might help.

Yeah...this is a giveaway PC and not worth spending 50-bux on memory after shipping. It's a P4 1.2GHz or something.

Jesus, I don't even know where they went after we moved, but I did have 4 64MB PC600 cards laying around. Would have helped, at the very least. No clue where they went now though. They were out of some ancient project that I built from scratch just to see if I could do it without looking up instructions, haha. I'll ask my mom to look around my room (I'm back in CA, cards are in TN,) but I can't really guarantee anything.

EDIT: Actually, come to think of it, it very well may have been 128MB. It's been a while since I've seen them.

Does it have to be PC-600? And only 128? I know I've got 2-3 gigs of DDR at home somewhere (I believe two one gig sticks and two 512 sticks). If I have them and they work I'll give em to you for free. I've got no use for them...

[audtatious]

Not necessarily. I'll have to pull up the PC model number to see what that PC will accept.

EDIT:

Memory
Architecture RDRAM
RIMM sockets four
RIMM capacities 64-, 128-, 256-, and 512-MB RDRAM
Standard RAM 128 MB (minimum)
Maximum RAM 2 GB

Shame it isn't DDR, old school RDRAM isn't a common thing for computer users to have lying around.

[audtatious]

Yeah. Pretty much time to pull the HD and scrap the rest. Hell, the HD is probably pretty small and worthless too.

Yeah and most likely isn't a SATA drive. I would just use the drive for shooting practice.

"Pull!"

[audtatious]

No, not SATA and probably 80GB or less.

Guns are bad..mmmkay? They murder people so I don't have any because I don't want them to murder me....or make me murder others.

Ive got a old parts computer laying around P4 2.4GHz, Micro ATX DDR motherboard, think its got 256MB ram in it. Ill sell it cheap and just mail the mobo/cpu/ram and you can use your tower.

[audtatious]

I'm replacing my p4 2.58GHz HTPC with a better one and will have that one "free" so at this point I'm just going to scrap this POS.

I appreciate the offer
