Will 5300 667 mhz pc2 fit pc2 6400 667mhz motherboard ram slot?

[applecloud141]

I am looking to buy some more ram, my current are pc2 6400 667mhz ram slotsand I was wondering if pc2-5300 667mhz ram will fit into my current ram slots

Yes, they will fit without no problem.
As long as they are both ddr2, which they seem to be.
But you should check your Motherboard manual, to see if the RAM you are thinking of buying, is compatible with your Motherboard.

But you would most likely get a slower performance, since the 5300 RAM is slower than the 6400.
Your RAM will not run faster than your slowest RAM, if that makes any sense.
It's better to change swap all your RAM for the PC2-8500

I think U is standard and should fit most likely

I am sorry, I am on my laptop in the livingroom.
I dunno if Ebay is the site to get RAM from, but I can do the search for you.

These should be compatible with your Mobo, I dunno if you have 1 or 2 chips. But this one comes with 2.
I do not know if they will work, since I cannot find your Mobo, and it's RAM compability.

But if the RAM should not work, you can simply resend them.

would this one work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Atech-4GB-Kit-Lot-2x-2GB-PC2-6400-6400-DDR2-DDR-2-800mhz-800-Desktop-Memory-RAM-/321872623382?hash=item4af11a7716:g:nc8AAOSwuTxWALF3

You should check firstly if your current RAM, is a DIMM or a UDIMM. You cannot mix them up. If your current RAM is DIMM, the RAM chips you linked to will work.
How many chips do you have?

Do you know how to check that on cpu-z?

You probably will need to look at the RAM directly, just take a photo with your cellphone, and check if it's DIMM or UDIMM.

before i check in my pc by chips is that the amount of slots i have? because i had 4 ram slots 2 are 2gb and the other 2 are 1gb

If all the slots are taken, you will not notice much difference in swapping them out.
By chips, I mean the memory stick itself.

i looking internally in my pc and the ram sticks didnt say anything about dimm or udimm

If you are certain the investment is worth it, just buy the ones you linked.
They got a life time warranty, so just resend them if problems shall arise.

Yeah, they are DIMM. You look good to go, but again, I do not think the investment will be worth it. But only my cup of tea, good luck!
