So Im going to buy this

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083Y6MV6/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

And Im assuming it will perfectly fit in my case after I remove the tuner and my old card?

Looks like I will be saving money to get RAm as well. I have 6GB looking to upgrade to 8GB

 

[imomun]

I think so, you can and should double check prior to purchase now that you know their size (psu and GFX Card).

Good luck

 

[lekihayasaki]

Alright on a last note.

Which RAM should I get? I have Inpiron 620 Desktop. Currently 6GB I want to max it out which is 8GB.

 

[lekihayasaki]

imomun can you help me find a ram?
My max I can go is 8GB.
Is there a faster ram/gaming that is 8GB ?

 

[imomun]

your memory modules probably 240 Pin DDR3 PC3-10600 1333MHz


But you pic shows you dont have any empty slots left for mem upgrade sorry my friend.

But good news is 6GB is not bad for games so you can skip it for now.

 

[lekihayasaki]

No I currently have 4GB and 2GB. I can just take both out and buy x2 4GB ones.

 

[lekihayasaki]

Is this compatible?

Best answer selected by lekihayasaki.

 

[imomun]

the corsair should be alright

Thanks

 

[DarkSable]

Both the ones you linked are compatible - what you want to buy is 8GB (2x4GB) DDR 3 1600MHz Cas 9.

 

[lekihayasaki]

I heard the 1600MHz is faster

 

[lekihayasaki]

I found a couple I liked. That are 1600MHz

Will all three be compatible with my mobo?
And which one is better from those three

 

[lekihayasaki]

Anyone on? A suggestion would be nice.

 

[stickmansam]

The Ares set is the best gb/price but there are much cheaper sticks for 2x4gb = 8gb as 8gb is enough for ram

 

[lekihayasaki]

Would the AMD one be good as well?

 

[lekihayasaki]

Would the AMD one I posted be good? Or Ares is better?
