Memory Upgrade

cepy123 · Jun 26, 2005

I'm trying to get some more memory for a friends pc, HP Pavlion 6343. I would like to put 256 in it. But at Tiger Dir. I could only find it in 64mb. (the speed is only 66). Does anyone know of any other place I might get this .

Thanks in advance

I tend to use the Crucial memory finder for Retail PCs like HP, DELL etc tends to take the hard work of hunting down the correct memory, then you can go hunting for cheaper prices.

After running the memory finder I get this.......

The HP - Compaq Pavilion 6343 has a maximum capacity of 256MB.
You can achieve notable performance gains by upgrading to the 256MB maximum. This may require that you replace the modules that are currently in your system.

Looks like max memory for that mobo is only 256mb!
