Hey all don't know if I'm posting in the right area or not. Feel free to move it if I am. Anyways I'm looking to upgrade my ram to a Corsair Model # VS1GBKIT400 and was wondering if it is compatible with my Via P4XB-S Motherboard. I'm having trouble finding this information any help would be greatly appreciated. Also if it isn't what else would you suggest for my motherboard in the price range of $80 - $90. Thanks in Advance!

Okay i kinda see why you cant find any info on that motherboard
VIA P4XB-S Motherboard i bearly found this out about it.
But this is the info.

• VIA Apollo P4X266 chipset
• VT8233 South Bridge
• 400 MHz Front Side Bus (FSB)

• Two (2) UDMA 33/66/100 IDE controllers
• One (1) floppy controller
• Integrated AC'97 audio

According to the website
PC3200
Part Number Speed Size Organization Package
VS1GBKIT400 PC3200 1024MB 2x64Mx64 2x184 DIMM
And seeing what i seen on that motherboard nope.
• Supports up to 3 GB DDR RAM (PC1600/2100)
Not PC3200
So you have 2 things to do a new motherboard or try geting a different RAM Stick for (PC1600/2100)
