I have a HP Pavilian Desktop M8300 desktop PC. Three memory sticks just seemed to die on me this last week. I verified that each memory stick individually was defective. I've done this by only using one memory stick at a time in the machine. Each memory stick generated the usual problems such as freezing up, mysteriously rebooting or just causing a BSOD. The fourth memory still is working fine. So, now I'm just running on this one 1024 Mbytes stick.
The desktop has a AMD Athlon 64 X@ dual core processor 6000+
The MOBO has 4 memory slots each with a max size of 4096MB
The memory type is DDR2 (PC2-5300).
Thus, I'm looking for suggestion for replacement memory options. For example, most reliable brand etc.
The primary purpose for this machine is programming. I do a lot of C, C++ and C# programming. I feel that a total of 4096 MB would be sufficient for my needs.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx
