I have an old Gateway Athlon Select K7-950 (well 900 now, the 950 fried and
I bought a combo with same board and a 900mhz processor).
(http://support.gateway.com/support/srt/docs.asp?sn=0022493070). Was
wondering about the memory density. It says it comes with 16x8. Would 32x8
modules work with this motherboard? I looked on the site, I know a bit
about computers, but memory density issues aren't my strong point. Thanks.
 
Yes it should as that is the chip density.
Check the crucial.com site for
compatible memory. They guarantee compatibility.
 
I did...they list my system specs incorrectly. They say my motherboard can
only hold 768mb of ram max, but it can hold 1.5gb, after that I just decided
to use another site. The site I'm buying from just listed the 32x8 128mb
sticks as compatible and for the 256mb sticks they list the 16x8 as
compatible, I thought they were just trying to get me to pay more that's why
I asked, guess I was right. Thanks again.
