will this ram work for this old pc?

[David2004]

Alright, well i gave my sister a hp pavilion xt963(dont laugh) a while ago, and she always complains how slow it is, dont blame her it only has 128 ram(lol) so i told her id buy her some ram(like she knows what that is) to make it faster.

the cpu is a celeron 1.2ghz(pretty fast eh) socket 370, with a intel 810e chipset. so i was wondering if this ram would work for it.

pqi 128MB 168-Pin SDRAM Unbuffered PC 133 System Memory - Retail - $15 bucks for it seems good enough, has lifetime warranty so if it doesnt work i can return it and get another stick, my question is about the 168-pin, i dont know if is compatible with the intel 810e chipset(doesnt say what pin it is when i searched about the specs on hp.com)

just wondering if someone help me out here and see if it is compatible

thx again(sry for bad english)

check what your old ram is by using cpu-z (www.cpuid.com)

pc133 is 168 pin, i dont think it comes in an other interface.

EDIT: that chipset doesnt support 133, only 66/100

so if u get 133, itl run at 100

There is no guarantee that it will work. SDRAM is very picky. To be 100% sure I would go to crucial.com and look for your computer in th elist. It is 100% guarenteed to work on that computer. You might pay a little bit more money but it is worth it......
