Upgrading memory

[Jon20]

Hi,

I'm new to this forum and to the whole idea of upgrading computer components. I've got a Packard Bell iMedia 1628 http://support.packardbell.com/uk/item/?sn=049681920259&g=1400 which has 1gb (2x512mb) of DDR2-533 RAM. I would like to up this to 2gb, possibly more. The motherboard can apparently take DDR2-667 RAM as well so would something like this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-095-CS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=144 be ok? I'd also like to upgrade the graphics card but that's a question for the graphics card section.

Thanks.

Hmm, that scanner only tells me that there's 4 slots of which 2 are free and that I can have a maximum of 4gb RAM. It doesn't give any recommendations. Anyway on the motherboard it has printed Gigabyte GA-8I945PM-RH. Having a look on google gives this information http://www.directron.com/ga8i845pmrh.html According to that, I can put in DDR2 667. Question is, would it be ok to put the RAM that I've linked to in, if I take the the current RAM out?

Finally got around to ordering the Corsair 2GB kit yesterday and installed it earlier. Everything went fine, infact I was surprised just how quick and easy it is.
