Just ordered new ram, is it good stuff?

I just ordered this Is it good stuff? I usally use corsair but I thought I would try this.
I am upgrading from old 1gb pc2100 ram, will i see a big improvement?
Thanks,

 

Corsair is good. Also, just make sure that your computer can handle that RAM (Corsair site would allow you to check, or Crucial.com).

 

I think Kingston is in the same ballpark as all the top brands. Should be OK.

 

Kingston is okay. Just be careful, due to your machine may only be able to handle PC2100 and nothing faster.

 

A8N-SLI Premium is my mobo.

 

Each memory slot can hold:
DDR PC4000,DDR PC3200,DDR PC2700 with a maximum of 1GB per slot.

• DDR SDRAM Frequencies: PC2100, PC2700, and PC3200
• USB Support: 2.x Compliant
• Error Detection Support: ECC and non-ECC
• Chipset: nVidia nForce4 SLI
• Supported DRAM Types: DDR SDRAM only
• Module Types Supported: Unbuffered only
• Max Unbuffered DDR SDRAM: 4096MB
• Max Component Density: 1024
• 184-pin DIMM Banking: 4 (2 banks of 2)
• Graphics Support: Dual PCI Express x16, SLI capable
• Although the memory can be installed one module at a time, the best performance comes from using matched pairs of modules.

Since they recommend Pairs, you are better going for PC3200 DDR, which can be found on sale usually @ OfficeMax, Depot, Staples, or even BestBuy.

 

Did you click on the link I posted to show what I bought??

 

There was no link in this thread, unless you posted somewhere else.

*Found it when I did a cursor search on your first post.

 

Cool!

 

The RAM you ordered should be fine, even though I am not a big fan of NewEgg. Just make sure that you keep the old RAM, just in case problems. Let us know how the machine fairs, due to I am looking at that same mboard if possible.

 

This is my first time ordering from newegg, everyone seems to think they have great pricing and service. I will see for myself, the pricing is good though.

 

WOW! its already on its way that was fast. It should arrive Wed. Cant wait.

 

course it's good. for overclocking that is. otherwise, it may be a waste. Value ram will do fine as well.

Remove your old ram if you want to see improvement, or else the new ram will run at the old ram's speed.

 

Well I dont do much overclocking but I wanted some good fast stuff for gaming. I read a review that it was some great gaming ram. oh of course that old ram will be gone
