Memory upgrade

[jefta_j]

hello..
I'm running at Pentium 2,80 GHz processor, Asus Extreme AX300 video card, 512 mb PC5300 667 MHz memory, Gigabyte GA-945GCMX-S2 motherboard.

What is the best way to upgrade my memory?

Thank you.

Buy a 2GB (2x1GB) memory kit like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231055
Or a 4GB (2 x 2GB) which is max your board supports http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820178164

Hey
rolli59 gave good advise. I probably wouldn't go over the 2 GB total ram though. I don't think your current system really warrants it. You should maybe think about having a look on ebay for your parts to, you may save some money on the ram. It is older, so people may be looking to give some away for next to nothing.
