Originally posted by biznology 'that guy' is DELL and yes, he is an idiot. i just pulled up the shipping specs with my build code, so im not shocked if theyre wrong... the processor reads thusly: PROCESSOR..., 80526, 800, 256, 133FSB, FIBER CHANNEL.. and this link is for the p3 1gig http://processorfinder.intel.com/de...spx?sSpec=SL4C8 nothing to tell me...but heres a dusty cell phone picture i really dont wanna use pay pal so i will check out the other link first|

it looks like a socket cpu to me. so the 1gig will work. plus its a dell and they quit using the slot cpu at 600 iirc. since thats when they re-introduced the socket cpu.

so yeah just get something off pricewatch for the ram as, its $15 for 512mb of pc133. cant go wrong for $65 to have a faster cpu and 4x the ram. that will help HEAPS.

Originally posted by biznology config on pricewatch/1stchoicememory says dimension 4100 accepts up to 512 and they recommended memory for...wait a minute...65 dollars!!! i think the 512 is likely right, but i will not pay that much for memory on this machine|

ignore all that shit, and just get regular PC133 512mb ram. here is a link to samsung PC133 512mb modules for $20 with free shipping.

hmm well i found a site on pricewatch that has p3s 1.0ghz+ for cheaper than the craigslist price, 8-13 bucks!

do i need to stick with the 256kb which goes to 1.13 or would going to 512kb be at all possible? i doubt the latter, but this one store could sell me all of it without any craigslist cash based hijinx|

the 256k and 512k have to do with ondie level 2 cache. unless you are playing games, which you arent, you wont really notice a difference. so either works. the 1.13 = the BEST p3 iteration. not because of the fact it was the last, but it was the fastest which also beat out the p4 at 1.6, 1.8, and 2.0 ghz.

well i have two 256mb sticks and one 1.13 256k p3 for 38 bucks before shipping...sound good? i think its pretty sweet.

but it would be just a few bucks more for the 512, i just dont know whether its supported...i suppose 256 wont be any worse than what i am currently dealing with!

thanks|

512 = 40 bucks, so two means much more...(at this one site tho)


basically its just the dirt cheap/quality sticks that are 15 at that price...

yeah i liked the idea of ordering it all from one place, but i think i will get the 8 DOLLAR processor from them, and the mem from somewhere in the 14-17 dollar range...hehe|


EDIT:

it has been done...i ordered 2x512 and the p3 1.13 for 63 bucks|

nice. i agree with trying to get it all from the same place, but $40 each for an older technology that they are just selling what they have in storage/low quantity manufacturing is just ridiculous. so now you will have a marked improvement over what you have now! and wont look back. will make the rest of your machine run much better and last a bit longer!
