I do not know from what site you plan to purchase your memory but 1 thought that you
might wish to consider that if the cost of the memory is going to be $100 or more and
If your current computer case can fit
an ATX board then it might be more cost and performance effective for
you to purchase a MOBO CPU combo and 256MB of either PC133 or DDR.
You can find 1gig athlon combos for around $100 and the ram for $50 or less.
And of course lower CPU at even lessor prices.
And if you read the docs and do not let it intimidate you putting a system together is
easy.
I am at the point now that I would not Have a pre-built system.
