In need of another 2GB stick of RAM

[Benie]

I need another 2GB stick of RAM to get me up to 4GB. All I know of my current stick, is it's a Kingston, DDR-2.

According to CPU-Z, I got this info;

I'm looking for something like this to not cause problems, but I suck at shopping for computer parts. :P

These people have a scanner which you can download and it tells you exactly what RAM you need, and then provides you with links to buy that from their website.

I just tried it. Said it couldn't find anything. Plus my memory isn't in their list of manufactures.

When choosing RAM you look at the motherboard, and what kind of RAM it takes, in this case DDR2, and that all your RAM has the same clock.

DDR2 is expensive you could probably get a new mobo and ddr3 ram for the same price and DDR2 >800mhz

You can, it's ridiculous. I paid $22 for 2GBs of DDR2 last july. Now I it's about $85-90 for 2GBs.
