Which memory would be best? Crucial is showing two types compatible with
my computer:
CT626917
<http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=006AEE06A5CA7304>
DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V • 128Meg x 64
CT626922
<http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=B1A16709A5CA7304>
DDR2 PC2-4200 • CL=4 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR2-533 • 1.8V • 128Meg x 64
One has a higher bandwidth but a slower CL. Or does it not matter, all
things considered. They are close in price ($1.)
Thanks in advance,
Richard P.
I've found Crucial to be very cost competitive when replacing OEM RAM, such
as from Dell.
Crucial has a good return policy and very good memory selector, so you know
that the RAM you buy will work with your system, rather than hope that the
generic cheapo stuff will work. I learned my lesson with that early on.
That's worth whatever typical nominal extra cost there is to me.

Crucial shows a 2GB kit (two 1GB cards) of DDR PC2-4200 memory at
$89.99
(plus tax & shipping) so it looks like your shop is taking you to the
cleaners.
And I think Crucial is overpriced so you are getting a double cleaning.
