Dell OptiPlex GX260 memory kit

This 2 GB kit contains two 1 GB unbuffered DIMMs built for Dell OptiPlex GX260 desktops. It uses 184-pin DDR1 modules running at DDR400 speed with CL3 timing. The kit is designed for systems that accept non-ECC memory in a two-slot configuration.

DDR400 CL3 2.6 V specification

Each module operates at 400 MHz (PC3200) with a CAS latency of 3-3-3 at 2.6 V. The 2Rx8 organisation and non-ECC design match the original Dell specification. This timing and voltage combination is the single factor that determines whether the kit will POST correctly in the target machine.

Simple two-slot installation

Power off the workstation, open the chassis and insert both sticks into the two available DIMM sockets until the retention clips click. The most common issue is mixing these modules with faster or lower-voltage DDR1 DIMMs, which prevents the system from booting. Using the matched pair avoids that mismatch.

Questions about this item

What does the 400 MHz DDR400 rating actually deliver inside a Dell OptiPlex GX260?

The modules run at the system's native DDR400 speed, providing the full PC3200 bandwidth the GX260's memory controller supports.

How does the 184-pin DDR1 DIMM interface limit performance in this machine?

The 184-pin DDR1 slot caps throughput at PC3200 rates, so the memory cannot exceed the 3200 MB/s ceiling of the GX260's front-side bus.

Will these two 1 GB sticks fit the GX260's two DIMM sockets without clearance issues?

Yes, the standard-height 184-pin DIMMs match the GX260's two sockets exactly, filling the board's 2 GB maximum with no heat-spreader interference.
