The 2 above are well known brands as is Kingston. http://www.ebuyer.com/search?page=1&q=5300&cat=3 My gaming rig was built 4-5 years and has been making do with just 2gb of value memory and I haven't had a problem with it EDIT: However, it is always recommended to match brands and memory size to what you have installed already (if you are adding to existing memory)
