thats the exact ram i want to get. what exactly does xms mean on the ram?

 

[osokk]

anyone know what XMS means on that RAM?

 

[oscaryu1]

I don't think it means anything. What does XP mean? It's like a made up cool name [vista ].

 

[osokk]

rofl good point. i was told by a tech from the company i got the pc from to check the ram when i get the pc to match up for future upgrades.

XMS = Xtreme Memory Speed. Their premium line of modules. XMS2 = DDR2

XP = eXPerience

Asus is the pickiest of all memory.

ASUS motherboards seem to work well with Mushkin brand memory don't they? What other types of memory work well with ASUS motherboards?
