I have an Asus P3V-133 motherboard and am running 2 strips of 128MB SDRAM - PC133 , I think it's low density memory also. CPU is an Pentium® III 667 MHz.

Question, can I replace the 128 ram with 256MB - PC133 Low Density strips, can this type of motherboard handle the bigger memory strips? If it can, do I need to change anything on the jumpers or BIOS?

I have 4 slots for ram and want to bump my ram up to a gig for gaming reasons.

Thanks for any help. :)
 
There would be little difference between the gaming performance with 256m ram to if you had 1 gig of ram!

256 is def enough

very very very little..........
 
You HAVE to check the motherboard manual. If you lost it, go look up the EXACT motherboard on the Asus site.

The motherboard I'm using now maxes out at 384. Even though I could afford to add more memory, it wouldn't work.
