I'm looking at buying a gig stick from newegg. Here's the list that should work in my machine.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?N=2010170147+1052407861+1259916289+1052307858&Submit=ENE&SubCategory=147

I am looking at the Rosewill one for 68.99. I don't need top of the line just something that works. The CAS latency is 3 while everything else is 2.5. My manual only says I need 2.5v but nothing about the latency.

Anyone see any problems here?

There is a crucial stick down the page for 86.00. OEM and out of stock until 3\20. A little more than I want to spend but is it really worth the extra 18.00?

Or do you recommend anything else on the list?

Thanks

Sweed

I don't think you should have any problem with that RAM. The Mushkin is a little bit faster.

Remember you are talking about (ms) so it's not really something you would ever really notice speed wise, IMO.

Thanks, went ahead and placed the order. Should boost the overall performance with 1.5g and more importantly not let my FM career bog down;)

The only trouble now is with the wife's new schedule she's usually home when UPS goes by:eek:
