Okay, so I'm trying to make this difficult for myself and need some explanation. I've got a dell xps 410 with 4 ram slots. I currently have 2 512mb totaling 1gb. My goal is to get 2gb efficiently. I was wondering what my best bang for the buck option is. I've found a good 2gb (2x1gb) package on new egg.

Should I go with that and disregard my old ram? or keep my old ram as well? I know there are issues with bottle necking and finding good matches with the mhz and such but i all doesn't make much sense to me. I don't need overclocking ram, so this should do me fine I think. Thanks. Any other suggestions are welcome.
