Default Memory upgrade

Have 1GB of Crucial Ballistix RAM (1 stick). Was looking at some 1GB PNY memory, same speed on the cheap.

Is this any good?

And should I stick to the same manufacturer and cough up the extra cash?

If you're wanting to run them in dual channel mode, you'll need the same manufacturer / spec of ram.

Not true. They will run in dual channel at the speed of the slowest chip installed. Manufacturer is not an issue.

Cant see what would be wrong with PNY, they make decent quality gfx cards etc.
