Hi all,
I would like to upgrade my Sony Vaio FS 640/W, from 512 MB PC2700, DDR, 333MHz (Infineon) to 1 Gighz PC3200, DDR 400MHz (Kingston).
My questions is:
1. Is new Memory(Kingston) compatible with the Vaio(FS 640/w) I had?
2. Should I stick with the PC2700 333 Mhz ?
3. How about brand compatibility?
P/s: I knew that the 400Mhz, will automatically downgrade itself to 333Mhz if I install it in the laptop, but my biggest worry is, is it compatible?
Besides, the price between the PC2700($20 more) than PC3200.
So, I would need some opinion about it, should I go for quality, or Cost?
Please Help
Thank you
Voon

Yes it should work fine, and no brand doesn't matter really with compatibility.
-
As long as you stay with a reputable brand, (kingston, crucial, corsair...) just go with the least expensive. You should be good to go.
-
If you are going to use them together, the faster memory will be downclocked.
