Computer memory
So you want to upgrade your computer's memory? Increasing the RAM (Random Access Memory) is a cheap and easy way to boost performance. The only tricky bit is making sure you get the right configuration of memory for your system. Most desktops today take DDR2 memory modules and most laptops take DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM modules, but specifications vary and different types are not compatible with each other. We recommend you check your computer's documentation or use an online memory checker to make sure you buy the right RAM for your desktop or laptop.
