Hello all.

I come to you today asking for advice on my system's memory. I plan on upgrading my system memory in the near future because 512 MB is not nearly enough for the gaming world. I have a D915GAG motherboard (http://developer.intel.com/products/motherboard/d915gag/index.htm) with only one bracket of space filled with two 216 MB sticks.

I was wondering if anyone here can tell me if these RAM sticks are compatible:

My main concerns about compatibility are:
Type 184-Pin DDR SDRAM
Speed DDR 400 (PC 3200)
Timing 3-3-3

Thank you whomever helps me :)
 
184-Pin DDR 400 or DDR 333 Random Access Memory should be compatible with your motherboard.

If you are going to use this system for gaming I would recommend upgrading to 2048 megabytes (2 gigabytes) of Double Data Rate (DDR) memory. 1 gigabyte will definately give your system a boost, but 2 gigabytes will be much better.

The below memory should work with your system:

Kingston ValueRAM 2 x 1 gigabyte 184-Pin DDR 400 PC-3200 Dual Channel Kit $109

Yeah, but right now I don't have the money for 2 gigs and it was hard enough to get 50$. i have to pay off school loans and all. Real hassle. But with these I should be at 1.5 gigs, and with only a 5500 FX graphics card I don't think I need much more to prevent bottlenecking...
