I wouldn't get new ram. What's wrong with yours right now?

I would consider 2 gigs if you are gaming. Otherwise, the FR is TCCD, and the GH, I believe, is the UTT type. So you are looking at two completely different types of ram.

i've never had any probs with 1gig (hl2 maxed settings d3 maxed settings except for aa and af no lag on either)
actually according to some here the gh is labled utt beacause they are useing an untesed bh-5

If you wanna play BF2 and newer games, you should definently get 2 gigs.

well to be honest i can't afford 2gig of good ram so im going with 1gig good now and another later mabe. but as i said i have never had any probs with 1gig in games and thats crap ram. i can play hl2 bf2 d3 all on very good or maxed settings. anyway out of those 2 which should i get for the price
