RAM upgrade assistance

Hi All,

New to the forums, as needing some help with upgrading my PC, which I am finally getting around to with some christmas funds, having been saying I would do it for the last twelve months or so.

I've tried using the scanner on Crucial.com website, but its not be able to advise on the memory to purchase as the PC I have is from a local supplier and not recognised as a major manufacturer.

System Details

  • Maximum Memory Capacity: 1572864 MB
  • Currently Installed Memory: 512 MB
  • Available Memory Slots: 1
  • Number of Banks: 3
  • Dual Channel Support: N.A.
  • CPU Manufacturer: AuthenticAMD
  • CPU Family: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Model 15, Stepping 0
  • CPU Speed: 1809 MHz

Therefore, I found a tool on the Dell website which has indicated a number of memory types that I can purchase for the motherboard.

Motherboard = K8 Triton GA-K8NS Ultra-939

Link to the results I've been given as follows
Dell : Memory : Accessories :


Just wanting to confirm that what I have got is correct, and can anyone advise best way to find a good quality and reasonably priced piece RAM from those results?

I am UK based so ideally want to buy and ship from a UK company (mind I might just pop to a local store for it but wanted idea on price first).

Thanks
 
managed to get the Crucial site thing to work once I had managed to find in the small print of my manual that its Giga-Bite that are the manufacturer of the motherboard.

1GB RAM for £22.99 including VAT from Crucial.
