    @alex_stief Thank you. I didn't know that's a thing. I own an Airtop2 and indeed it's pretty tight. Canceled the order, whew. If you have one more minute, can you recommend any of these? pc4 21300 | Newegg.com

    Thanks for answering! Just making sure what options I have. Also thank you for the links to better deals. I noticed non-ECC is quite a bit less expensive than ECC. Should I prefer ECC? Is the frequency of memory errors considerable enough to pay a couple hundreds more?

    Hello, first poster here. I hope I chose the right (sub)forum. I ordered an Airtop3, specs here: Airtop3 specifications. Still need to find RAM for it (need 128 GB) and I got lost in the parameters and acronyms and whatnot. The manufacturer helpfully sent me a list of RAM brands they tested...
