Sorry to be a bother, but I only need one more question answered and that is as I said I have 1 ddr 512 memory and this is premium. If I buy another of the same does it have to be the same maker or can any Premium memory do?
 
Make sure the memory is the same speed (ie 2700, 3200) as your current stick, and make sure the board supports that speed of memory. My step dad has some PC2700 Ram in his system, but the board is supposed to have 3200. The 2700 works, but his system occasionally has some issues and will crash from time to time.
A different brand of memory will be okay to use though. It's kind of like batteries in a flashlight...put in 1 energizer and 1 duracel, and it still works because they are the same size, do the same thing, etc.

For memory, I reccomend Crucial (
I hope this covers your question now and any more questions you may have had for later.
