Wake up that old sleepy desktop

PostedJune 23, 2010
Yes, I would recommend this product
Even an old workhorse like my 5-year old Dimension XPS Gen 5 can be reinvigorated by feeding it additional memory. The boost from 1 to 3 GB provided by these new modules made a very noticeable improvement in all applications.
Pros:photoshopping digital images

What a difference!

PostedJuly 21, 2009
Yes, I would recommend this product
Pros:
I already had 2GB of memory on my XPS Gen5, which is a decent amount... so I wasn't sure how much of a difference another 2GB would make. Wow... it made quite a difference. With virtually no disk swapping of information, my programs are opening and running much more quickly and I can have more programs running at the same time without noticing any decrease in performance. I should have upgraded to a full 4GB a long time ago. It was easily installed in less than 5 minutes, and I have not experienced any problems.
Cons:
I have 4 memory slots on my system, which were all filled with the previous memory sticks (4 x 512MB for a total of 2GB). So that old memory became useless, and had to be removed to install the new memory (4 x 1GB for a total of 4GB). But we use Dell systems at work, and my systems admininstrator was happy to take the old memory off my hands. :) Alternately, you may be able to make a few bucks off of your old memory on Ebay.
Summary:
With the price of memory being dirt cheap now days compared to even just a year ago, you can't go wrong with a memory upgrade (especially if you catch it on sale and get free shipping, as I did with this product). And with the release of Windows 7 right around the corner, I wanted to make sure I had plenty of "oomph" to run it smoothly. With a full 4GB, I should be able to get a few more good years out of this system.
