Kingston KVR333SO/1GR Review by Alan Nichols (carolina)
I had no idea how easy it would be to upgrade. I have an old Dell Inspiron 1200 which worked, but sometimes drove me crazy. I followed simple directions (trap door on the back of the case, snap in memory, restart). Amazing improvement. Should have done this earlier. The computer recognized the new memory without me doing anything except restarting. Saw a 2 minute youtube with explicit directions. Wow
Kingston KVR333SO/1GR Review by Matthew Greenberg (San Jose, CA USA)
I just bought the Kingston RAM to update my Dell laptop from 1GB to 2GB... The memory install was a snap, repowered my laptop and the computer now sees 2GB... My computer is much faster...
Kingston has been around for a while so I recognized the name in a good memory provider. I went to Fry's and they had a new brand called Centon, while cheaper, I had not heard anything about the brand. The salesman says it is a new brand and they do not know if people are having problems so for a few more dollars I bought Kingston (a brand that I know about).
Most, of the negative reviews, seem to be of the variety of being shipped the wrong memory and not the product performance and/or reliability. I bought this same RAM in a store and know that it is a 1GB DIMM...
Update:
I also updated the memory in an old Dell desktop from 1GB to 2GB with the PC3200 Kingston chip...
In replacing the desktop and laptop I noticed that both machines were getting a lot hotter. The laptop felt much warmer and the desktop had this foul heat smell... I did some searching on Google and there were some issues with the vendors that Kingston is specifying and their chips do get hot... It seems that there is also a similar issue in Samsung memory as well (they used similar or the same vendors)...
I decided to replace all of the Kingston chips with Corsair and the computers while warmer were not that hot and the smell went away on the Dell desktop.
If I was creating a new review I would give it at most a two since there was a product defect (which can lead to frying parts or a fire hazard). I wanted to like this product; I know the name but this is a serious issue...
