Which DDR2 do you recommend for my gigabyte GA-8N Quad Royal

[tj2004]

Which Memory Module for Gigabyte GA-8N Quad Royal SLi,

I have this mobo with a Pentium D 2.8 GB and am running 1Gb DDR2 PC-4200 OCZ EB Enhanced Bandwidth Platinum Rev.2 kit in dual channel mode.

I wish to add at least another gigabyte RAM but am not sure which ddr2 would be best. I do not plan ot overclock the mobo (at least yet) and use it mainly for video editing.

I had been thinking of:
Another: 1Gb DDR2 PC-4200 OCZ EB Enhanced Bandwidth Platinum Rev.2 kit however I can buy 2x 1Gb DDR2-533 PC2-4200 CL 3-2-2 Mushkin DDR RAM Dual Channel kitfor the same price - although I am not sure if this mobo will support the mushki. Alternatively would I be better purchasing a higher spec ddr2....

I am open to any suggestions

Thanks

TJ

Hmmm... I would personally buy the same type of RAM as you have now, to be sure that your mobo can take it.

Since your mobo doesnt seem to have support for C2D I would say yould be okay with just 1 more GB. Given that by the time youll need 3GB youll be better off buying a new comp.
Go with DDR2 533 dual channel, theres no performance increase with higher speeds unless youre overclocking.
Try to get the lowest possible CAS and email the RAM manufacturer and gygabyte to check compatibility.
