Just wondering is there anything to buying ram more than getting the correct type? i have ddr2 ram in my computer at the min, so I assume I get more of that! But is ddr2 ram all the same or is there any differences in types or anything? don't want to get something that doesn't work!

I ran a program called CPU-Z to check if my comp is x64 compatible, and it is. So thinking of getting another 2gig of ram to give me 4gig and upgrading to windows 7 x64.

This program says that my ram frequency is 332.5, do I need to get ram of that frequency? some stuff i saw was 800mhz.....

I have an intel core 2 duo @ 2.2 ghz.

ALso where's cheapest place to get ram? http://www.shop4memory.com?

THanks!
