I'm looking to upgrade the RAM in my MacBook (Late 2007). Its got 1 GB currently (2x512MB). I want to buy a 2GB stick of RAM and take one 512 out. My MacBook has always been a bit slow, but its gotten pretty bad lately. I've looked in Activity Monitor while running my usual applications (Mail, Chrome, NetNewsWire, iChat) and I do need more RAM. I like to do a lot of work with iMovie and iWeb, but its hard to do that now as it always hangs...so I looked around online for some RAM.
I've looked at Crucial RAM, but I was hoping maybe I could save a few dollars and get this RAM through Newegg. Its "WINTEC AMPO 2GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Laptop Memory".
Has anybody heard of or installed WINTEC RAM? The reviews on Newegg looked good, but I didn't see anybody mention using it in a mac. I would like to save money by purchasing the Wintek RAM but if it isn't going to last longer than 1 year or if its got bad performance than obviously I'd go for the Crucial RAM.
Thanks!
