The question was centered around the AMD 2.n chip
and older style memory. I had a system with 512

The AMD chips in the XP series (I think that is what they were

I had a board that topped out at 333 (166x2) so I could not run the

For what it's worth, while Datamem has good prices, it's memory finder

Check out www.newegg.com and see what they have.
