I've been wanting to upgrade my mom's computer for awhile, so I thought I would give her the RAM in my current system. It's a stick of DDR2-667, 2GB capacity.
The specs on the technical specifications page say that the Dell takes DDR 533. Will my RAM work in her computer? I don't really care if it's slower, it's just a temporary fix until I buy her a replacement memory set. I just don't want to fry my RAM, in case I have to RMA the Ballistix Tracers I have in the mail.
Also, will the DDR2-800 Tracers I bought work with my motherboard which takes DDR2-667? Do they have a higher voltage requirement because of the LED lighting?
I understand that they will work only at 667mhz, but I figured two sticks is better than one because I think my board is dual channel. I'm not sure though, it's kind of hard to tell.
