Heya everyone...

Money has been slow-coming recently and I have had trouble getting what I need to build my dual Xeon system.

Right now I just have the chips... :p

I am going to be buying the mobo and case soon (hopefully).

I was wondering if anyone had some working DDR333 RAM that they're looking to sell at a decent price. I wanna put 1GB in this new system but I think I'll only be able to afford 512MB atm...

If anyone has some they're willing to part with for a decent price please send me a PM.

Also, my g/f has an old 350MHz pentium system w/ 64MB of ram. I'll be ripping the cd-rom and hard drive (which are both new) out of the system leaving it to be all barebones.

If anyone's interested in this system send me a PM. So long as you pay shipping I'll give it away for free -after- my duallie is built.

I figure someone may have a kid out there who they just want to have a system that they can put $50 into and let them play their little kiddie games and browse their kiddie websites.

Thanks,
-Jeff

Oh yeah, I think the PC-DL can only handle PC2100 and PC2700. PC2700 is preferred.

{EDIT AGAIN} Correction, there seems to be one brand of approved PC3200 made by Corsair...but that's getting too picky. {/EDIT}

Maybe too early to tell, but the buyer-reviews are good and I've been happy with the Rosewill 256MB PC-3200s I bought a month ago, only $23.99 + $5 ship. (In fact they were $20.99 last week.) You'll need two for a duallie anyway, right? And if the project you are planning to run only needs 128MB, maybe the 128MB PC-3200 ($14.99) will do.

All Rosewill memory at newegg:

Note that they sell both the

ST (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-223-024&depa=1) and the regular (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-223-008&depa=1) versions of the 256 3200 at the same price.

PC 3200 should run fine.
Mine has 1 gig of twinmos 3200 in it.
If you dont skimp on the ram you shouldn't have to do the voltage mod.
