Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 8300 Series System:

Upgraded from 1Gb to 3Gb on a WinXP SP3 system. Have not noticed the hoped-for marked improvement in speed, but possibly multiple applications are loading/resuming a little faster. Have not undertaken any strict measurement before and after, so impressions are subjective. Could not really either recommend for or against on this evidence.

Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 8300 Series System:

Needed extra memory to upgrade my 5yr old Dell from 1GB to 2.5GB. This was enough to allow me to switch between tasks quickly & reliably.
This memory was recommended by using the Crucial ID tool & it works perfectly, giving me the extra boost I needed. Easy to install & worked 1st time.

Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 8300 Series System:

Had a client who has been running XP on a Dell PC with 512Mb for a few years. With nothing to compare it with, you don't realise how slow it is until you increase the RAM. I always buy Crucial memory - Never had a problem with the product or installation and Customer Service [...]is superb.

Comments about Crucial 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 8300 Series System:

Its amazing what any easy upgrade from a quality product can do for a 4 year old computer. Fitted in 10 minutes, turned on the PC, it recognised the upgrade and that was it. Upgraded from 512mb without any problems. Best thing you can do to put some power back into an ageing PC.
