I've used Crucial for all my memory upgrades. I especially like their money-back guarantee if the memory their selector tool picks doesn't work in your PC.

Disclaimer: I currently work for Micron Technology, the corporate parent of Crucial. However, I used Crucial well before then.

Do you run a 64 bit OS on it or a 32 bit OS which can handle more than3GB (thus not Windows)?I always buy Kingston.-- Failure does not prove something is impossible, failure simplyindicates you are not using the right tools...nico@nctdevpuntnl (punt=.)--------------------------------------------------------------

Like others have said, Crucial is good. You can download a program form them that will tell you what is installed, and what additional memory your computer can take.

I buy a lot of memory from geeks.com, and Ebay.com for older RAM.
