512 megs of ram just ain't cutting it anymore but I was just at newegg looking for a 1 gig stick of ram and was totally overwhelmed with choices. Here's what CPU-Z says under the memory tab:

Type: DDR-SDRAM

Timings
203 MHZ
CPU/10
3-3-3-8-12-16

What's the deal with ram voltage? And how do I pick a brand? I want to spend between 75-100 bucks, less would be even better. I'm not some sort of memory overclocker so I don't need anything fancy. Just a 1 gig stick of ram that won't die on me.

Thanks!

Mike
 
Are going to be doing much overclocking? If not, just get some value RAM made by Crucial, Corsair, Kingston, etc.
