ddr2 RAM is insanely overpriced in retail stores. For instance, getting 4GB at a shop through $133 would be a total rip-off, whereas buying used on $67
for 1gb, maybe $50-$20 used would be a fair price.

And yes—they should work—though they might just run at a lower frequency.

ddr2 is pricey, and ddr1 is even worse.

I was checking Craigslist; there's some available for $20, but even then, I see prices around $33 for a single 1gb ddr2 stick 🙂
plus, it's hard to find people selling multiple sticks at once—I actually need 3x1gb for three different machines. Honestly, my biggest worry with buying off Craigslist is the lack of security—if I just buy new from a store, I get that 3-year warranty, which provides much more peace of mind.

Thanks for the help! 🙂

I don't want to clutter things up by starting a whole new thread, so just a quick question here.
Will this RAM http://ark.intel.com/products/27733/...ory-Controller
actually work with this motherboard
?
The specs say the board supports DDR2, but only at lower speeds (DDR2-533), whereas this memory is rated for 800.
Will it just run at the slower speed—like a sports car stuck in a school zone—or will it fail to boot entirely?

If it's a no-go, does anyone have suggestions on where I can pick up some DDR2 with a lower clock speed?😁

Can the SX 130 work like my old BX printer if I just use generic ink refills for $6.75 and
? I'm a bit confused—do those inks require a manual reset now?

rustysurfer79, regarding what you mentioned about permanent ink plus color—does that mean we can actually reset them,
effectively topping them off indefinitely? Also, that price point of $40—is that for a full set of colors?
