HAHA! okay i will. i did end up trying at stock and it still crashed!

i440BX accepts max 128Mb chips. As an unregistered DIMM supports max 16 chips, your max DIMM size is 128Mb*16/8=256MB, and only 256MB DIMMs with 16 chips will work at full capacitiy. If you use DIMMs with 256Mb chips, only half will be detected/used. - for speed, look at the last digit of the chip …

CL2 ram is better than CL3. Often CL3 ram will run fine at CL2 speeds, sometimes not. Not a major performance difference. Running your memory at 100mhz on a 133mhz system isn't the end of the world. Certainly not like the difference between say a Geforce 4 TI and Geforce 4 MX. Would be barely …

If you want an amount under 512MB but over 256MB, you sort of gravitate towards 384MB. You can do that with 3x 128MB or 1x 256MB and 1x 128MB. It shouldn't really make much difference in terms of performance. If you want to overclock significantly, keeping the memory bus load down can help, so use …
