MSI CX61-0nF (2 years old)
Windows 8.1 pro
i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.4GhZ
geForce GT645M
750GB memory
4GB RAM (the other 4gb ram card broke)

I want a fresh start for my laptop. Its battery is good as dead (I always overcharge it) and it's having a hard time running multiple apps but I think a reformat/refresh(to remove the viruses,malware etc) and upgraded RAM will make it perform better.

I already lost the box it came with (with all the manuals and CDs) I need help with what ram card I should buy? I found the old one I took off and it's brand seemed odd.

Zeppelin 4G/1333/2568/ULCL9 *made in taiwan*

Anyways, I'm planning on buying a ram card on this site click me!
Please help me find a good one. I only need 4gb. I don't know anything about brands so please. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Here are some I found I don't know if they're compatible though..

As long as it's as fast or faster, the same size and same form factor, it should work.

Laptops are a little more picky about their RAM than desktop motherboards, but I doubt you want to drop a huge amount on matched RAM sticks considering the GPU will probably be a little under-powered for you in another 2 years. It's a 100% chance with exact set as specified from manufacturer 99% chance of working with matched pair vs 95% with similar enough.
