I have difficulties finding Ram for my old motherboard. I bought some ram (like 8gb) but they didn't seem to work as after I set them in my computer ceased starting. I put in efford finding suitable ram, but seeing that abit from my understanding no longer exists I can't find any informations on useable ram. Can someone please help me out and tell me what Ram I can buy that would work on my Abit 35 pro. Many thanks in advance | ||

Memory • 4x 240-pin DIMM slots support maximum memory capacity up to 8GB. • Supports Dual Channel DDR2 800/667 Un-buffered Non-ECC memory I would assume max capacity of 8GB also means a max capacity of 2GB per slot. Did you use a 2x4GB kit by any chance? | ||

If the 8 gig is too expensive you can still go up to 4 gigs and you should see improvement. What is your ram configuration right now. Can you add to what you already have in there or do you have to take the old stuff out? | ||
