Re: Memory stick does not fit at the division, but length of the sticks are identical

Hey guys,

I got a "Kingston ValueRAM 2GB DDR2 SDRAM Memory Module - 2GB (1 x 2GB) - 800MHz DDR2-800/PC2-6400 - Non-ECC - DDR2 SDRAM - 240-pin DIMM" (KVR800D2N6/2G)

I thought it would be a regular 240pin memory, but the division is slightly offset. Is there anyway to fit it in or is this a manufacture's fault?

Here's a link to my motherboard http://usa.asus.com/products.aspx?modelmenu=2&model=1402&l1=3&l2=15&l3=368

Would I be able to say I got the wrong product than advertised? I got it from here and the picture looks like a normal one, lol

What a bummer, trying to buy a filler item

Thanks for any advice,

Looking at the specs of your board, you need DDR RAM and not DDR2, that's why it's different. Buying DDR RAM will give you sticker shock when compared to DDR2. Take it back man.

 

sorry, what do you mean by sticker shock? lol, ah.., I feel so stupid

I guess I'll b returning it

 

All sticker shock means is more expensive as DDR2 is cheap compared to DDR.

 

I see what you mean, thanks!
