RAM & Speed

[kretchy]

I was wondering if anyone had an approximate idea of how much it costs to upgrade speed and ram of computers.

 

[Lethal]

depends on what your looking for,you can upgrade ram for pretty cheap at the moment though
which ive taken advantage of

I'm definately think of buying another 128 RAM! That will give me 256 RAM!

I did know how much extra RAM costs but I now cant remember!

Either do it soon or wait until after Xmas

Evidently there just happens to be a shortage of RAM around at the moment (just before Xmas!!) and prices are rising almost daily

Cheers

Depends what sort you want. Last week I added another 512MB for $180. As Gonzo says, RAM will be selling quickly now and prices may rise. Look up www.adelong.com.au to give you some idea on prices.

The price rise has already occurred. Two weeks ago a mate of mine bout himself 2x256MB of RAM for $45 each. I went this weekend to the swapmeet and they were $60 each

Apparently they've been selling like hotcakes and distributors are running out of stock.

There's always one idiot who has more than everyone else ;-)

I don't know anyone who has more than my 768MB - so I guess I'm that idiot for now. (depending on what M29 added the extra 512MB to!!!) It's fabulous. Photoshop never seems to run out of RAM, and my PC seems to cope pretty well with having lots of things open at once. I got my machine in may/june of last year (01) though, so it was pretty pricey... closer to a dollar a meg.

We have 256mb ram I believe at the moment.

Only got 580MB here. Was going to buy another 512, but I may as well Upgrade my cpu and motherboard as well.
