What's the reason you're upgrading it for?
The links you provided didn't work...or I just don't know how to extend it. Anyway, I would suggest going for the cheaper one because you wouldn't notice a difference as they are the exact same speed and timings.
As long as you have the correct 'Memory Type' for your system, which you do, you'll be fine. When in doubt (or too lazy to open the system case), I use crucial's system scanner that gives you all the information you need to upgrade your RAM (and other useful information). -
