DDR2 or DDR3? (Atom N450 Netbook)

[jumeeno]

Just about to upgrade my Mum's Acer Aspire One netbook from the standard 1GB to 2GB.

Thing is - I don't know if it's DDR2 or DDR3 I should be buying?

I have fired up CPU-Z and the MEMORY tab states TYPE DDR3. However on the SPD tab, it states DDR2 / PC2-6400.

Would rather use DDR3 as it's cheaper!

N450 = DDR2
N455 = DDR3

Hope that helps.

Spot on. DDR2 it is then!
