4GB Max memory?

[silentmelodies]

My motherboard manual says it supports up to 512MB DIMMs, but a max of 4GB memory. How am i supposed to archieve 4GB with 4 slots of 512MB RAM?

Erm, you buy a new motherboard, and CPU, and RAM, and a whole dam system. Seriously please refresh from a 9 year old system, unless ofc if your fine with just playing Minesweeper. 

[Excon]

I've never heard of a capacity limit per DIMM on a motherboard before

[PokémonTrainerFour]

Downloading the other 2GB of RAM, duh.

He could have more than 1 system, dont have to be a prick about it. Not all people can go out and buy a new system. Also OP is only 15 so chances of having a job are slim.

Dude, you need Titans in 4-way SLI to even get Minesweeper playable in 720p on low.

Get better system. At least on i3 if you're bad in financials.

[TheRunningOtaku]

Theoretically it's chipset can support up to 4GB

But if you're still using a system like that, I suggest that you get a new one... Buying new RAM will cost you a lot, so it'll be more cost effective to get a new system altogether.

The last time I've had 512mb in my system, Pentium 4 was still relevant...

[Clyne]

get 4 512mb ddr ram sticks. I suggest getting a new system because socket 939 is dead, even you add 4gb of ram, your system won't run fast.

well i had 4 256 mb sticks of ram in my old computer that has a amd athlon 64 cpu

[-rascal-]

According to reviews of this board from 2005, the board supports 1GB DIMMs.

I need a PC for internet only and mild gaming, as i got the motherboard for 25$ and i can get 4GB of G.Skill ram for another 20$.

Okay.

Here is all cheapo, so yeah, why not build a 2005 gaming pc.

Awsome.

And all parts are damn cheap here also !

No it wont, since i must pay 300Euros for a i3 here.

you will need 4 512mb ddr 400 ram sticks to get 4 gb of ram

except 512x4=2048 which is only 2GB of ram

[Mooshi]

Wouldn't getting that ancient of memory be more expensive than even inflated DDR3 prices? I remember DDR2 being laughably expensive, cant imagine DDR being cost effective, either.

My bad, last time i used 512mb of ram was 5 or more years ago. Well then this guy needs 4 1024 mb ddr 400 ram sticks

Dat list price, though.

[silentmelodies]

The point is, im going to build a expensive PC with a ssd, some fancy gpu card, corsair's cooling and all the blows and whistles , and when its time to upgrade (mb dies) i just replace the motherboard. Everything else is there, PSU, cooling, case etc.

I wasn't trying to be a prick, man so many people misunderstanding me this evening :'(

Well what is your parts list atm? We might be able to guide you to a better outcome. But seriously, if your motherboard doesn't support even DDR2 than you may as well get a new one.

Bruh, more like 3 Xeons and 7 R9 295X2s. Even with that you'd be pushing up into the 9001^oC range.

I just attempted to launch Minesweeper on my laptop and it exploded.

I'm going guess p4 and 1GB Dims should be fine.
