Help me buy RAM?

[#686578]

I'll spare you the long story, but I just got an old machine from work to play with, to make into a media server hopefully (complete with TV tuner card) an old Dell XPS B733r.

It's in perfect working order, except it's missing RAM. I took some RAM out of a old Dimensions to start it up to make sure it was working. But, I couldn't keep the RAM, gotta get some of my own. It's old RDRAM, and I'm not quite sure where to find some for the lowest price online. The whole point of giving this to me was because I dont have enough money to build one of my own. Something like $20 I can afford, but not much more, I don't really need much in the way of size, it's just a server.

And before Newegg, I'm pretty sure it's too old to be there, I tried just RDRAM with no results, though I admit it could be under some other name.

Bought some RDRAM (PC800) for my mother's computer as a Christmas gift, was damned expensive I think I paid like 80 bucks for 1GB (4x 256MB)

Yeah, I'm only going with like 512MB for ~$25, 2x256MB PC600

Awesome, ordered Friday around noon and got it in the mail today. Fuck newegg and their like six days to process and ship.

Heh.. if anyone's at fault there it's UPS Ground and their no weekend delivery shit.

Newegg's usually pretty good about processing & shipping orders. Don't get rush processing though it's a waste.
