how big of RAM is this?

[Quintox]

I just recieved 2 free ram sticks, one of them tells me and the other doesnt

256mb 32x8 ddr333

heres the one i dunno
32x64 ddr333

Is there a way to tell how big the 32x64 is?

Educated guess: 2 gigs.

Heh... no.

I can't remember what that marking is exactly...
Grr.
It doesn't have anything do do with the actual capacity of the RAM though. The only way I guess is to stick it in something and find out.

Unless I'm wrong?

you could put it in a pc and during boot up it will tell you.

the only way i know of is putting in the slot and looking at the system specs. you could try searching on the internet.

Math class time, what is 32x64?

2048, 2 gigs. I bet you read a number wrong however

But... I don't think that's what that number means... let me look this up.

[edit]
Ok here we go.

That number is the number of megabits, (not megabytes) of the capacity of the module.


So, it's 2048 megabits.
Well, how many bits are in a byte? You should know this. It's 8.
----
Side not for future knowledge:
b=bits
B=bytes
-----
2048Mb/8Mb = 256MB

The Module is 256MB.

I looked it up, looks like 256mb

 

[alecjahn]

Damn, I didn't edit fast enough.

The numbers represent "the number of the chips multiplied by the capacity of each individual chip", says pcperspective.
