I'm looking to double my RAM from 512MB to 1Gig in my 1rst generation quicksilver 867 (single processor.) I know I need PC133 SDRAM, but can I get any SDRAM, or does it HAVE to be mac-compatible? (can I get it from a PC store and not have to pay Mac prices?)
Thanks! d. |

RAM is something you definitely don't want to go the cheap route on. Many people have been having new problems on their old machines once they upgrade to OSX. Nine times out of ten, the problems can be traced to cheap RAM. Sometimes it works fine for years under OS9, then they upgrade to OSX, and big problems crop up. OSX seems to be more sensitive to the quality of RAM than OS9 was. even if you're using OS9, I wouldn't recommend getting cheap RAM, because you may want to upgrade your OS in the future.
I recommend RAMJET.com. They're cheaper than buying from Apple, and so far there are no bad reports about their RAM chips. |
