A: Well that memory is for a laptop - try this , great deal w/ free shipping & rebate CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145034 $58 w/ $25 MIR & free shipping Also this cooler is *much* better, on sale, free shipping FTW :) really not that much more than yours since yours is $19 w/ shipping ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186134 $27 w/ free shipping everything else looks good... but consider a new power supply if yours only is rated for +12v combined total of ~ 240w / 20A max, this one is another great newegg deal... Antec earthwatts EA380 380W http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371005 $40 w/ free shipping it can handle +12v @ 324w / 27A which is more than enough. I should mention that modern PCs focus on the +12v power for both the CPU and the GPU and older PSU units are not designed with that in mind and instead use the +5/+3.3 volt rails as the bulk of their rated power. cheers
