Hi,
I recently purchased a PE 6850... I'm shopping for parts for it...
I am (and have been since the 1990's) confused when it comes to choosing memory.
The specs for the 6850 call for "144-bit ECC registered PC2-3200 DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs, with two-way interleaving, rated for 400-MHz operation"
Of course, I buy my stuff used on eBay - so, it is kinda up to me to find the right stuff.
Some websites sell 'guaranteed to work' memory for the 6850 that is PC2-5300...
As far as I can tell, my (2) cpu's are 800mhz fsb... which I think plays into the choosing of memory.
Anyway - is there any current documentation as to what memory I can use - or any advice? It is hard to search for such information, since you get 1000s of results of sites trying to sell you memory.
(I'd search the forums here, but search doesn't seem to work right now)
