If your looking to upgrade your system and not raid the bank, The Corsair Value Select DRAM 2 GB PC2-5300 is a
great piece of kit. With 2 modules of ram each with 1024 Megabytes of Ram (2 x 1Gb) with Speeds Up To 667 Mhz,
This upgrade is fantastic for any computer user that wants to multitask and use memery hungry applications.

I bought this ram for £65 a month ago but i'm sure you can get this cheaper. The Ram was very easy to install,
I opened my case, found the two 240-pin DIMM Slots, pushed down both of the safty caches and slotted in
both of the modules making sure i didn't touch any part of the chips on the Ram which may make it unusable
due to static electricity in the skin. If you are going to install the Ram yourself I recommend that you invest in
an anti-static ristband/bracelet.

Once fitted I booted up my computer my bios automatically updated itself with my new Ram settings.
Everything felt the same until i logged into my account. That's when i noticed the difference. Everything loaded seamlessly
and fast, very fast. It used to take me at least five minutes to load up my desktop with my old ram which was 256mb.
But now it only takes a few seconds to load up everything. Waiting for programs to boot was virtually a thing of the past
and switching from application to application was simple as 123 without everything taking hours to unfreeze because there wasn't
enough memory to allow the programs to run properly. Anyone with a little bit of cash should invest in getting the
Corsair Value Select DRAM 2 GB PC2-5300.
