Installed in a Dell Inspiron 531   Review Date: March 2, 2008 Reviewer: Gideon Hill, Parma, OH USA I just installed this memory in a Dell Inspiron 531. I know it's helpful to know if it goes into the exact computer you have. It did give it a noticeable boost in speed. I have the AMD athlon 64 X2 dual core processor with dual channel memory. The memory must be installed in pairs, and this Kingston item IS a pair ( 2 modules, each 1 Gig = 2 gig total.) My computer came with 1 Gig ( 2 modules of 512MB each,)so I went from 1 Gig to 3. Don't trust the Dell Support Center software. After I installed the memory, the Dell software showed I had only 2 Gig total, but the Windows SYSTEM control panel showed 3007MB ( 3 Gig. ) Be careful, a lot of the search results you get end up being the wrong memory. Every time I thought I had the right memory it was either SODIMM memory, which isn't the right kind for the 531, or it was only a single module, not 2. This is also the correct voltage (1.8) and speed ( PC2-5300 which is the same as 667 Mhz )I wasn't concerned with overclocking, just compatability. Some of the more expensive gaming memory is rated 800Mhz but they are 2.0 or 2.1 V and might have to be manually adjusted to work, which sounded like a pain, plus I think that'w why the Amazon reviews were not as good. The cover of the computer was easy to remove ( just 2 screws.) Be sure to have an anti-static wrist band on and clap it to unpainted metal. then you just have to push the little plastic locking handles outward on the memory sockets and install the modules. They sit easliy in the slots, but you have to push down pretty firmly to get the locking handles to pop back up. Two of the locks locked by theselves as I pushed down. I had to help the other two. Hope this is helpful to Inspiron 531 owners. Working great.   Review Date: December 11, 2007 Reviewer: Dong Hyun Jeong, Charlott, NC USA This product is cheap and working great on my Dell desktop computer. If a person is thinking about upgrading his/her computer, consider buying this item and save some money. :) Great deal   Review Date: May 24, 2007 Reviewer: Eduardo Tijerina Cano, Upgraded my notebook to 2GB with this option. Now I can get several things running without concerns. 50% less money than other "branded" options, ...this is Kingston...don't see any performance issues...;ValueRAM...so...for personal use I am fine... Great Deal. Works with Intel iMacs.   Review Date: October 24, 2007 Reviewer: TomT, Just bought a stick for a 17" Intel Core2 Duo iMac, and works perfect. Quite a BARGAIN! Also ran the Apple Hardware test .. Quick & Extended off the Mac OS X install disc, and NO errors. I've always had good luck with Kingston memory for PC's and now the same can be said for Macs too. No loss of memory even with age.......   Review Date: September 20, 2007 Reviewer: Lynn D. Walther, Surprise, Az. USA These are the main ingredient that I use when building a power house computer. Four of these will provide you with trouble free daily use of your desktop computer system. Hats off once again to Kingston.........
