RAM, I don't know what to search.

Huge noob question, I have a macbook with these specs
Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook2,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz


and am looking to upgrade RAM. I'm not exactly sure what to search since RAM brings up way too many results. How much RAM can I put in my computer, I know the new ones can take 4GB but what about the older whitebooks? This should stop the beachball from coming up so often along with improving performance right? What do you guys recommend put in and where do most of you buy from?

Thanks

how do I figure out my Macbook model number? Something like MA######

Yours is a Rev B Macbook. You can install 2X2GB (4GB) but it will use 3.3GB of it.

Here is the cheapest: $36.49 from Newegg. Use this for cash back ($5 and 2%)

is it quality though? So If I were to just upgrade to 2 it wouldn't use all 2GB, just curious but why doesn't it use it all?

could I upgrade to three haha. But for a little over $10 I might as well upgrade to four. Thanks for all the help.

so I kept putting it off and now the price went up... not by much but any idea on why it went up or when it'll come back down. I'm a poor college kid so that ten dollars goes pretty far

Well you could get this Corsair set for $37.99 plus $2.99 shipping. ($40.98 vs. $44.99 on the G.Skill set)

is one better than the other, performance or quality wise?
