Posted June 30, 200915 yr I am trying to upgrade my RAM. Here is the system Specs for my RAM from HP:1024MB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)That's all it says unfortunately.In PC Wizard 2008 It says:Type: 2 SDRAM PC2-5300 (333mhz) [DDR-666]Format: SO-Dimm (67.6x3)I am looking to upgrade to 2G which means I need to buy 2G since I have 2x512 in my system now.Can someone lead me in the right direction? What would you recommend.THANK YOU Edited July 1, 200915 yr by LUZR4LIFE
July 1, 200915 yr Type: 2 SDRAM PC2-5300 (333mhz) [DDR-666]This has to be erroneous. Are you sure is is not DDR2-666 ram?

I typed in what was shown in PCW 2008 and the spec on my PC was unclear. 1 thing though what brand would you get?I am thinking about the Crucial or the CORSAIR
July 1, 200915 yr Either!I have first-hand knowledge that Crucial has kick-ass support.I hear Corsair has good support too.

July 2, 200915 yr Author I ended up ordering a CORSAIR 2GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) and got the 3 day shipping. On the other side I maybe selling it. LOL.

July 6, 200915 yr Author I just got my new RAM, sad thing is after installing the 2G stick with a 512 and starting it up, I find out that my laptop only supports 2G, since 512 is missing.
July 6, 200915 yr Author 2 is plentyYeah, it is. It just sucks having 2 sticks of 512 but, maybe 1 day I will need it for another lappy.
