    Hi guys,

    I just bought a new Aspire 5620. Probably this is an old edition for you. After playing it for a while, I assume that the stock 256MB DDR Memory is not sufficient for my need - The system is pretty slow.

    Can anybody suggest me, or willing to comment what memory that you would probably recommend for me from Newegg? I've read some good and bad comments about DDR2 667 CAS 5 from Crucial and Mushkin. So I'm a little bit clueless now.

    Can anybody suggest me which memory should I choose between this link:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145012
    or
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820146123


    Thank you very much guys,
