[rocker07]

I am planning to buy 4gb additional ram. My motherboard is Gigabyte M68MT-S2. Does following rams are compatible with this motherboard.
1.Transcend DDR3-1333 DDR3 4 GB PC RAM (JM1333KLN-4G)Transcend DDR3-1333 DDR3 4 GB PC RAM (JM1333KLN-4G): Flipkart.com
2.Kingston ValueRAM DDR3 4 GB PC RAM (KVR1333D3N9/4G)Kingston ValueRAM DDR3 4 GB PC RAM (KVR1333D3N9/4G): Flipkart.com

If compatible, which ram would better buy.
Kindly help! thank you

Either should be compatible with the motherboard. Both are 1.5V DDR3, with similar timings.

One warning: there can be compatibility issues due to mixing RAM from different makers. It's safest to avoid that. (Costs more, of course.) As it's a desktop motherboard, you may be able to solve compatibility issues by manually setting the RAM timings.

The better buy would be the least expensive. I've not bought any RAM from Transcend, but as far as I know, they're as good as any. I've had good luck with Corsair and Gskill.

thanks for reply. The issue i have is with frequency as Transcend offer very low frequency 166 mhz, while other offer much better frequency of 667 mhz. How much it will affect the performence.
