Is there a difference on speed between 2x 64MB PC100 and a 128MB PC100 RAM???

Anybody here who tried/have and noticed any difference???

Yeah..the 2 sticks takes up another precious DIMM...Anything besides that is just nitpicking.

There is zilch difference. Go with the two DIMMs if you can only afford one right now, otherwise go for the 128 to save a slot. That's about the only advantage you'll ever see.

Cool.. Thanks you guys.. Well the reason why I asked is because 64MB costs $59 and the 128MB costs $142.. Since they don't have the difference on speed, I'll get the 64MB.. And I still have one free slot, I can stick a 128MB or 256MB once the memory prices go down again.. Thanks you guys.. /forum/smile.gif

You got a good price on that 64mb stick, less than a buck a meg! I'm throwing another 64mb in mine today for a total of 128 (finally!). My CMOS and Award BIOS should pick it up, right? What size should I set my swap file to now to reduce HD thrashing? About half the available RAM?

Mykel, Where'd you get the RAM? I'd like 64Mb
so whenever I get my daughter her computer, I
can stick it in right quick!!

www.pricewatch.com (http://www.pricewatch.com) There you'll see all the memory deals.. They're cheap, just look for the one that has the cheapest shipping coz sometimes it cost $59 for the RAM you will be charged $24 on the shipping.. I hope you get the idea... Go to each dealers website and find out the shipping price..Got mine for $14 shipping ( ACCESSMICRO.COM )...Happy buying.
