would this 1024 mb DDR3 video card work with DDR2 (4GB RAM) in a dell dimension 5150 ecosystem? I plan to use to mainly for streaming videos and skyp

The video card has nothing to do with the ram on your PC. Make sure you set the PCI-e as the main video card in the Bios and disable any other video card you have on your PC.

It should work with the Dell system you mentioned. The card has a PCI-E 2.0 bus .

I would say yes though I am not sure how much RAM your machine can support.Bandwidth: DDR2-6400 (PC2-800)Memory Specs: 240 Pin 1.8v DDR2 PC2-6400 Non-ECC DimmAt this price it might be cheaper to get a new board and RAM for a few extra $ and up your performance some.

Well your Dell is DDR3 1600mhz compatible. So by all rights this should work just fine for you. Just install it and reboot the laptop. It will recognize the memory and start working right away without any kind of configuring. Very plug and play. Just make sure you have a x64 bit operating system. A 32 bit OS won't allow you to utilize more than 4gb memory, even if you have 16gb installed. So provided you have all that you won't have any issues whatsoever.

i'm not sure if it will i did use it in a dell but prior to use i ran a scan for which type of ram chip but going through crucial.com and downloading their scanner to figure out which chip set to use

I installed this in an older Dell Dimension 5150 with Windows 7 operating system. The Windows 7 Operating System recognized the video card and automatically installed the drivers. No problems with installation.

Video card memory has nothing to do with the ddr3 ram the board uses....just make sure the board supports your version of pciex i.e...16x version 2 or whatever you're card is

It should work, but it will slow down the video to the 2.0 spec's. This video card is a PCI Express 2.0 x16. Need to make sure the intended slot is X16.

Call up Dell's product specs on this board...it may work OK, but I am not privy to this info

I actually have one of these in a Dell Dimension 4600 and it works beautifully. Not sure why you think it requires a low profile card since the Dimension 4600 is such a big desktop, a full size graphics card will work perfectly.

I'm not sure as this link here will show you it says its not low profile...I do know it is a very good card that fit perfectly in my 300 watt system and runs smoothly...Go to your manufactures website (dell, hp, etc) and search your model number and look under parts regarding video cards, it should list the type of card you can use with your system and then just google search the cheapest card...But as the other posters have said, if you have an extra slot next to your pci express 2.0 then yes it should work...Good luck and reply back your results please...http://tinyurl.com/btv4lzt

I was going to say go to the Dell web site but I just looked, their entire presentation of this model is aimed at the layman and doesn't really say much. under slots it only lists memory, call Dell or maybe look inside to see if you have a pci-e slot.

Von - I really have no idea if they will work. As a matter of fact I bought similar ram from another vendor which didn't work in my Dell. I returned those (pita) and tried Komputerbay -- no problem with those. All I did was try the ones which were recommended --if it worked, great - if not, back they went. It won't hurt to try either way. Good luck -Howie

T. Jackson I'm not sure if your computer has DDR3 ram it should work. look it up on goggle and Dell page. You have to check what your windows handle as well

Sorry, but is it a 645 or not? I need that video card supports more than one display at same time without inconvenience. So, I saw on dell and nvidia website that 645 is good for it.

looks the same to me they both take DDR2 PC2-6400, NON-ECC, but Here is one you might consider 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 4700 at this link 2GB kit (1GBx2) Upgrade for a Dell Dimension 4700 Series System (DDR2 PC2-6400, NON-ECC, )

No, you need a 533MHz DDR2 with a max of 2GB per slot. http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_745techspecs.pdf

Check out Crucial.com and browse to Dell > Dimension > 4600 and you'll find exactly what type of memory you need. Check Amazon's price though, they may be better than crucial.
