Hiyaaaa...

I'm going to buy some RAM today... (yippeee ;/)

Anyway... which one:

(4gb but on a 32 bit system)
HP Pavillion dv6500t

Maximum Memory Capacity: 4096MB

CPU Manufacturer: AuthenticAMD

Although the memory can be installed one module at a time, the best performance comes from using matched pairs of modules.

Go for the one that you said, its seems pretty decent.
How much are you looking to spend though

The first one, the CL is lower, meaning the pc will generally be a little bit faster.

Second one has a higher bandwidth. Bandwidth will benefit you much more than latency in your case imo.
