Kingston 2x1GB DDR2-533 Notebook Memory Review

Sidney · 1st December 2007, 15:47

Sometimes in the pursuit of a new laptop one of the limiting factors is the price, and sometimes to save on price we will sacrifice the extra, but often needed memory. We all know that some manufacturers will charge up to $200 additional dollars for an extra 1GB of memory. But why spend that additional money when you can simply head on over to the Kingston website and get that larger memory kit at a cheaper price and a good chance at speeds being faster. For my application this was true: my laptop was supplied with 2x 512mb of DDR2 400; Kingston supplied me with 2x 1GB of PC2 533, or model number KTH-ZD8000A/1G. Laptop memory can be very model-specific, and the Kingston website has a very user-friendly system to get the correct memory for your needs.
