I have a Dell Dimension 4500 which uses PC2100 ram but i can't find any. Is it compatible with PC2700 or do i have to go with PC100 which i assume is slower. Dan P.S. Any extra info on RAM speeds would be about as good as canned peaches. I am still trying to figure out the whols ram thing

you'll have to check your motherboard to see what it supports. If you get the model number then it will probably be on there website..... If the RAM that you have now was supplied with your PC when you first got it then chances are it will only support PC2100.
