Help me choose a new stick of memory

[wolf202]

Hi, I got some money for Christmas and I'm making a B-Line to add ram to my gaming machine in not exactly sure what I need so I thought I'd ask here.

My Computer:
AMD 3000+ 64
Elite Group 755-A2 MotherBoard
512 ram
Saphire ATI Atlantis 9700 Pro

Now I want to to make the most of of my Money (about 100 Canadian) I have to buy it at futureshop because of a gift card. What would be the best 512 stick for me?

the best is usually Samsung TCCD based

NO clue if any of that is (the hyperx might be but thats gonna be a bit pricey for ya.)

What ya might consider is selling your gift card via ebay or other forums in your region.

Then get the Patriot 2.2.2.5 kit from newegg. Its about $120 after a rebate (not sure if rebate is good for canadians) and is NICE. Its a dual channel 512 x 2 kit @ 400mhz but will clock to nearly 600mhz. Ive run it like a champ for about 10 months.
