greyhavns said:clearanceman said:greyhavns said:doesn't the 530 MB require only 1.8V memory chips? your offer for the crucial 1.9V won't work will it?

1.9 800mhz Corsair works at 800mhz. Not sure about Crucial.


no what i mean is that the 530s motherboard i thought only supported 1.8V memory. therefore, if the crucial requres 1.9V, it won't work cause i originally had OCZ Gold at 2.2V i think and it wouldn't boot up until i read on the forums it was incompatible. so, with that being said, can it be confirmed this memory will work on the inspiron 530 motherboard?

That's why I said the 1.9 corsair worked fine. I'm not sure about Crucial. Perhaps the 1.9 volt Crucial works fine too?

Excellent deal, when combined with my AMEX reward points Dell $250 off certificate.

I just canceled my order as I was able to configure the same system for $612 with info from here. Looks like the extra 10% has been resurrected and it stacks!!!!!!!

The EPP deal you went for was also covered here in OP! The point is you must be able to get that 10% off to be able to get that price.

Use a cheap RAM upgrade from the many deals here and you will be ok.

you'd spend $350-400 on a 24" monitor easily. So view it as two seperate purcahses.... the tower for $300 which is about the cheapest you'd get any PC non-refurb.

Just a couple notes if you decide to order the Haupage tv tuner card:

* It will delay your order. My last order was delayed 2 weeks because of that card
* You won't be able to use a dual slot graphics card like the 8800gts and the tv tuner at the same time as the slot will be covered.

Picked one up. Good deal.

Which GeForce is best?

8800GT or GTS?

Gaming and video editing are the main applications.

Thanks

3. 4GB Memory: A 32-bit OS can address exactly 4GB of memory but some of that 4GB space is stolen for the system to use (For example some of that address space is used for USB ports, other ports, PCIe lanes and etc). Thats why most 32-bit systems, after addressing all the PC parts, have about 3.2GB to 3.5GB left of addressing space and that is why only 3.2GB to 3.5GB of RAM can be found by the OS. For the record, this limitation has always been there, including in Windows XP 32-bit and earlier versions of Windows. If you want to use all 4GB memory or more you need to use 64-bit OS.

If the CPU is capable of addressing more than 32 bit (eg, Intel Core 2 CPU's can do this), then even 32bit Windows XP SP2 will automatically be able to address all 4 GB of RAM through PAE (Physical Address Extension).

Any suggestions other than the corsair mentioned in the OP for $70 after rebate? I truly appreciate any ideas.

Deal does stack.

Here is the config I just ordered:

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6550 (4MB L2 Cache,2.33GHz,1333 FSB)
4GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz- 4DIMMs
22 inch E228WFP Widescreen Digital Flat Panel
250GB Serial ATA Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache
Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic - English
16X DVD+/-RW Drive
Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio

Total: $594 + Tax + Free Shipping.

What do you guys think about this config? I figured 4gb memory is worth more than 24 inches of monitor.
