    Just another quick question and I am done bothering you :).

    According to CPU-z I am now using two 1GB DDR2 PC-6400. Wouldn't it be better to buy another pair of PC2-6400 or it doesn't matter? Because I read in another thread of this forum that is not recommended to mix up DDR2 PC2-6400 and PC2 5300 (even if the motherboard allows both of them) due to something related with the speeding.

    So if I buy, for instance, this kit (or a smilar one) would I be okay and have no compatibility problems with my current rams?

    No its not recommended to mismatch RAM, I assumed that you had PC2-5300 RAM installed...my bad

    Supported DIMM types for you motherboard:
    PC2-5300 (667 MHz)
    PC2-6400 (800 MHz)

    So purchase PC2-6400 and you will be fine :)

    Cheers
