I discovered some RAM and want to check if it fits your Dell OptiPlex 745 motherboard. Your current setup uses 512MB with the 1RX8 PC2-5300u-555-12-D3 chipset, and you're considering a 8GB kit with four 2GB modules (PC2-6400U DDR2 800MHz). Let me know if it matches your specs.

From the spec sheet I found online, this kit appears to work unless your model includes dual RAM channels. For more details, check the Intel® Q965 (ICH8) Express Chipset and the optiplex datasheet. Updated June 15, 2020 by eeeee1 Realized not every model supports four channels.
