16GB for less than $100

Published February 29, 2012 | By Don Pedro

We got some new memory for the laptops in the office, which lead me to ponder the idea of upgrading my machine at home. It’s already got 8GB of Ram, but as the wise man said, you can never have enough. On a whim, (that is the catch phrase that usually costs me the most money), I checked out the motherboard and it can indeed take 16GB of Ram. Well hell son, let’s check this out!

A quick check on Amazon shows 8GB of Ram in a 2x4GB config to be $47. So I bought two! They’ll be here Friday!
