Which RAM to buy

[kittysacattack]

I am in the process of making my first computer. I have a ASRock Conroe 1333 FSB motherboard that has 2 pc2-6400 RAM slots. I have a 32bit OS. Can anyone suggest which memory from here my motherboard will be able to handle, http://shop3.outpost.com/category/O...ory/Memory/Desktop+Memory?accipterAreaString=
Also, could somebody suggest alternative places to get good deals on memory. I am not sure to use 4 gigs, and only get 3 due to the OS, or just settle for 2 gigs. I will use my pc for watching DVDs and playing some games on the level of half life, not the newest games like crysis.

2 1G chips would be good but if u want 3G just put 2 2G chips in but there is not much of a diffrence between 2G an 3G on XP
get the PATRIOT 1 at the bottom it has the lowest CAS langency an tests have proved that DDR 800MHz at 4-4-4-12 will out preform the DDR2 1066MHz at 5-5-5-15 by (4-7%)
your mobo will handle all the ones on that page

Two gigabytes of memory should be sufficient for your system.

Take a look at this deal I found on NewEgg.com:

Patriot 2 gigabyte (2 x 1 gigabyte) 240-Pin DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) $50

Also, If the below link is what your motherboard is, your memory will only run at PC2 5300 speeds. 240-pin PC2 6400 random access memory will work in the below motherboard but it will not run at PC2 6400 speeds.
