Higher RAM

Postby jimmyjam » Thu May 22, 2008 9:08 pm

Hi to you all
I have an AMILO MX437G with 2.0 GHz CPU Intel and 512 MB RAM.
I would like to upgrade main memory to higher than 512 MB. Is this possible and if so what is the maximum memory I can install?. Can you suggest a good brand of internal memory that will fit the AMILO MX437G?

Thank you in advance

You need SO-DIMM PC2-3200 or PC2-4200. The latter is faster. PC2-5300 will work too without any disadvantages but you can't use it's full potential. It's just another option because the other types are getting rare and expensive.

Your chipset supports up to 4GB of RAM but I doubt whether the bios will do.
Up to 2GB should work.

Trustworthy brands are Kingston, Samsung and MDT.
