What is the largest memory a PC can hold??

Answer 1

If you have a Dell, Compaq, Toshiba, Gateway, HP, or other OEM computer!
Know in advance; that these OEM computers require very specific memory part numbers or the upgrade will fail. Only buy and install part numbers listed by the memory maker as being for your specific model number. You don't need to buy your upgrade from the computer maker since they charge very high prices. But make very sure that the memory part number you buy is listed for your exact model number.

240-pin DIMM's are used to provide DDR2 SDRAM memory for desktop computers. DDR2 is a leading-edge generation of memory with an improved architecture that allows it to transmit data very fast.
Standard DDR2 240-pin DIMMs are available in DDR2 PC2-3200 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-4200 SDRAM, DDR2 PC2-5300 SDRAM, PC2-6400 SDRAM and PC2-8000.
To use DDR2 memory, your system motherboard must have 240-pin DIMM slots and a DDR2-enabled chipset.
A DDR2 SDRAM DIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM DIMM socket or a DDR DIMM socket.
The number of black components on a 240-pin DIMM can vary, but it always has 120 pins on the front and 120 pins on the back, for a total of 240. 240-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.25 inches long and 1.18 inches high, though the heights can vary. While 240-pin DDR2 DIMMs, 184-pin DDR DIMMs, and 168-pin DIMMs are approximately the same size, 240-pin DIMMs and 184-pin DIMMs have only one notch within the row of pins. The notch in a 240-pin DDR2 DIMM is closer toward the center of the module.
Dual Channel mode memory. For systems that make use of dual channel memory mode, you must have two memory boards that are exactly the same or the dual channel portion will not work. Get two memory chips with the same part number if you want dual channel.

184-pin DIMMs are used to provide DDR SDRAM memory for desktop computers. Each 184-pin DIMM provides a 64-bit data path, so they are installed singly in 64-bit systems. 184-pin DIMMs are available in PC2100 DDR SDRAM, PC2700 DDR SDRAM, and PC3200 DDR SDRAM. To use DDR memory, your system motherboard must have 184-pin DIMM slots and a DDR-enabled chipset. A DDR SDRAM DIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM DIMM socket. (Information on which memory technology is used by your system is included in the Memory Selector.)
The number of black components on a 184-pin DIMM may vary, but they always have 92 pins on the front and 92 pins on the back for a total of 184. 184-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.375" long and 1.25" high, though the heights may vary. While 184-pin DIMMs and 168-pin DIMMs are approximately the same size, 184-pin DIMMs have only one notch within the row of pins.
Dual Channel mode memory. For systems that make use of dual channel memory mode, you must have two memory boards that are exactly the same or the dual channel portion will not work. Get two memory chips with the same part number if you want dual channel.

A dual inline memory module (DIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). The gold pins on the bottom of the DIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a DIMM are not connected.
168-pin DIMMs are commonly found in Pentium® and Athlon® systems. 168-pin DIMMs are available in EDO, 66MHz SDRAM, PC100 SDRAM, and PC133 SDRAM. When upgrading, be sure to match the memory technology that is already in your system.
The number of black components on a 168-pin DIMM can vary, but it always has 84 pins on the front and 84 pins on the back, for a total of 168. 168-pin DIMMs are approximately 5.25 inches long and 1.375 inches high, though the heights can vary. They have two small notches within the row of pins along the bottom of the module.

Make sure that any memory that you buy is not only the correct type and pin count, but make certain that the speed you choose matches your memory BUSS speed.
Common speeds are PC66, PC100, PC133, PC2100, PC2700, PC2-3200, PC2-4200, PC2-5300, PC2-6400, and PC2-8000.
For RDRAM, common speeds are PC600, PC700, PC800, and PC1066. The newest type of RDRAM are not listed as a PCnumber. Speeds are listed as RIMM1600, RIMM2100, RIMM3200, RIMM4200, RIMM6400, and RIMM8500. These new type or RDRAM chips will not fit in place old style RDRAM.

A single inline memory module (SIMM) consists of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). The gold or tin pins on the bottom of the SIMM provide a connection between the module and a socket on a larger printed circuit board. The pins on the front and back of a SIMM are connected.
72-pin SIMMs are commonly found in older desktop computers, such as the 486 and early Pentium® models. 72-pin SIMMs are available in FPM or EDO. When upgrading, be sure to match the memory technology that is already in your system.
The number of black components on a 72-pin SIMM can vary. 72-pin SIMMs are approximately 4.25 inches long and 1 inch high, though the heights can vary. They have one notch on the bottom left and one notch in the center of the module.

200-pin SODIMMs are used to provide DDR SDRAM memory for laptop computers. Each 200-pin SODIMM provides a 64-bit data path, so they are installed singly in 64-bit systems. 200-pin SODIMMs are available in PC2100 DDR SDRAM. To use DDR memory, your system motherboard must have 200-pin SODIMM slots and a DDR-enabled chipset. A DDR SODIMM will not fit into a standard SDRAM SODIMM socket. (Information on which memory technology is used by your system is included in the Memory Selector.)
The number of black components on a 200-pin SODIMM may vary, but they always have 100 pins on the front and 100 pins on the back for a total of 200. 200-pin SODIMMs are approximately 2.625" long and 1" high, though the heights may vary. Like 144-pin SODIMMs, 200-pin SODIMMs have one small notch within the row of pins; however, the notch on the 200-pin SODIMMs is closer to the left side of the module.

I have a Compaq SR1132CU that is only 16 months old, and it can handle up to 2.0 Gb of RAM. If you need to tell how much your system can run, try going to http://18004memory.com and install their memory client. It will tell how much you have in each slot, and how much the motherboard will allow. As for maximum, I have not heard of any newer boards that took more than the 2.0 mine does, but that is something that changes in this great technological age.

Answer 3

yeah ur stable on rigidity area here. do not pay attention to the human beings telling you that it could keep like 1600 issues, its probable greater like 1400-1500. the reason being by using the fact the rigidity is formatted, and the working gadget is put in, thereby taking on area. you will probable finally end up with greater like one hundred forty five-150GB of disk area, yet that's nevertheless adequate space to final you a mutually as. additionally, take my suggestion and see in case you will get it with abode windows XP rather of vista. XP may be older yet its plenty greater effectual and greater sturdy than vista. it quite is not a bad computing gadget, yet stable luck working vista on it, even the main undemanding version.
