Could someone find the best possible 2GB, 200-pin SODIMM ram for my ASUS 1005HA Netbook, please? I've found this one which I am close to buying; http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=FCD4169BA5CA7304 ~ But I just wanna know if there is better RAM that I could get for my money.

(SEE HERE FOR MY NETBOOKS SPEC THINGY ON CRUCIAL; http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.aspx?model=Eee%20PC%201005HA ~ this is the RAM that I will need)

As I have said, £25 is what I want to spend, so thanks in advance! :)

Stefan.

Sorry for double post, but I will be ordering the best possible laptop RAM that people advise me to buy, or I will just probably by the one that I have posted, at 10.30pm tonight, so get suggesting please.

Again, sorry for double post, but I forgot to add that into the original thread.

The Corsair has lower latency (CL5) (lower is better) compared to CL6 of the Crucial. Other than that they're the same.

If it was me, personally I'd buy the Corsair just because of the completely unnoticeable performance difference. I'm picky like that. (and it's cheaper)

Well if you're sure it's the same as the Crucial one and will work with my laptop, then I'll but it, are you sure? (I'm an idiot with stuff like this.) :P

There can sometimes be compatibility issues with RAM, but they are very rare. It should, 99% work fine.

I'll go with the Crucial, because if it doesn't work, then I can just blame them for suggesting the wrong ram. :P

2GB ram isn't that much tbh you would be much better going for something more

2GB is ideal for a netbook. He won't be doing much ram demanded stuff on a netbook anyway, I don't suppose. Plus, looking at it he can only have a maximum of 2GB.

Even if he had more than 2gb ram, the processor in it would be fairly **** so it would just be overkill
