I bought a four pack of 8gb DDr2 ECC ram sticks, and they didn't fit into my Dell Precision 390. I know physically they don't fit, but why? Did this Dell (0dn75 motherboard) take only specific ram? If so where can I find some that isn't over $100???
If I can't get desktop ram, can I get an adapter, or maybe even make one, that fits what I bought into the slots on my motherboard?
