I currently have this for a system:

Gigbyte MA785GM-US2H Rev 1.0 Motherboard
Athlon II X2 250 Regor 3.0 Socket AM3 CPU
Corsair XMS2 2GB 240 pin DDR2 800 Ram
Antec BP550 Plus 550W PSU
MSI Radeon HD5770 1GB Video Card
Win XP pro SP3

as I said above I'm currently running this Ram:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145034&Tpk=n82e16820145034

and I want to upgrade to 4GB of Ram, should I just buy anothe 2GB kit of the corsair ram or should I buy this ram:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220293

Adding 2 more sticks of the corsair cost 69.99 with free shipping from Newegg and buying the patriot ram will cost me $104.99 with a $20.00 mail in rebate. I'm thinking that adding more Corsair Ram is the way to go, does anyone else agree or should I just buy the patriot ram? They both are CAS 4 speed and basically the same voltage.

As usual thanks in advance for the help!
 
Solution
As long as you have 4 DIMM slots it shouldn't matter one way or the other. You could even get the Patriot RAM and go with 6gb lol. But yeah, just get the Corsair.
