First and second links are broken(netbook and first ram). Just to further explain the memory though, netbooks can only run a max of 533mhz so the 800mhz crucial would be downclocked anyhow, and has higher cas latencies than the kingston;)
 
thankyou bomberboysk-------------------- i was reading your recomendation for the hyperx kingston-------- complaint is it is running tooo hot, why wouldn't the 600 or 800 be better ram----- i believe you said netbook would only take 433 and would downgrade other ram---- but if it is hot, and rated lower, would higher total rating cooler run better.

forgive the ignorance-------------- thank you for your input really----

The 667 or 800mhz would work fine, just run at a slower speed;) If your worried about heat... this memory has heatspreaders and only a slightly higher Cas than the kingston:

BTW, all ddr2 will be "hot" or "warm" to the touch, especially notebook memory as there is alot less airflow in a notebook or netbook;)

The mobo wont cook:P The whole netbook itself uses like 30 watts or so, less power than a lightbulb(Well, regular incandescent... if its a compact flourscent it uses slightly more power than one of those..). If you are worried about heat, the best thing you could do is get the G.skill with the heatspreader on it;)
 
i want the fastest memory i can put in, will there be a noticable diffrence between the gskill and the hyperx kingston? this is all i need to decide upon to put the order in.

No need to double post:P But there wouldnt be a whole lot of difference, i personally would go with the gskill now thinking about it more, their customer support is much better if anything is wrong with the memory when it comes, and the heatspreaders would help out with disappating the heat somewhat;)
