Lappy memory

[frosty03]

Quick question...

Have an Acer 5024wlmi.... apparently it takes DDR333 memory, i have 2x512mb in it.

Want to upgrade it to 2gb prior to installing win7.

Will that do? Realize it is DDR2 memory, but DDR memory is more expensive from looking around, and OCUK doesnt stock it...

Itching to press BUY....

No it won't physically fit, you need the expensive stuff unfortunately.

even though they are both 200 pins?

Or is it because you cant run DDR2 ram in DDR sockets?

Cant believe that the price is 4x!

thanks guys, had to bite down and bought the ddr modules.... got 2x 1gb sticks for 41 bucks.... daylight robbery i tell ya

only good thing is i get to sell off the current 2x512mb sticks at a higher price since they are DDR...
