Samsung memory???

matt0r · 24 Nov 2007 at 08:49

I am English, but teaching in Korea. I have found a small store here where a guy can build me a intel quad (2.4 / Geforce 8800 GTS (320meg) machine.....

...The only thing is the RAM is Samsung (korean lol) ...... My knowledge of Ram isn't that great and i was wondering if anyone on here would know if this is any good??

2 gig DDRII
Samsung PC2-053

The model number may be Korean only and not a UK number .... if so do Samsung make good RAM generally???

thanks

Am I right in thinking that Samsung makes RAM chips for most manufacturers?

Samsung are a huge OEM memory manufacturer.

It probably won't run much faster than its rated speed, but it should be perfectly fine.

Samsung invent some of the breakthroughs in Ram, like 1st to do this and that.
They also are the choice of GDDR on your Nvidia PCB's (Graphics Cards).

cool, ive ordered it today .... aside from people telling me to get the 8800 GT (512) instead of the 320 GTS all is good .... trying to explain that to a Korean who cannot speak english is beyond me ..... hes offered me this monitor too... a samsung 932bw it looked blurry in the shop but he might be runnin through VGA rather than DVI ....

I posted in the monitor section but i am too n00b to be replied to

thanks to all for the help though, much appreciated
