  • Total capacity4 GB
  • Product type240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM
  • Designed for Dell Inspiron 545s
  • 4GB total capacity in four 1GB modules
  • DDR2-667 PC2-5300 speed rating
  • 240-pin DIMM form factor for desktop boards
  • Low-density chips for broad compatibility

Dell Dimension kit

This 4 GB kit contains four 1 GB DDR2 modules built for Dell Dimension 5100 4700 8400 9100 9200 desktops. Each stick uses the 240 pin DDR2 form factor and runs at PC2 5300 speed. The low density design matches the original memory layout for those systems. Buyers with other motherboards should verify pin count and density before ordering.

DDR2 bandwidth ceiling

The DDR2 667 interface caps throughput at the PC2 5300 rating, so the kit cannot exceed that transfer rate. Modern applications and multitasking workloads will saturate the bus quickly. Systems limited to this memory generation will not benefit from faster modules even if they fit physically. The four module population also fills every slot on many boards, leaving no room for expansion.

Low density 240 pin build

Low density chips improve compatibility with the Dell chipsets listed, reducing the chance of boot errors. The standard 240 pin desktop layout fits the Dimension 5100 4700 8400 9100 9200 DIMM sockets without adapters. All four sticks are new and tested for those models. Builders needing higher capacity per module or a different pin arrangement must choose another product.
