Looking to upgrade ram

[secksthoi]

I want to purchase 4gb of ram for my 4,1 Macbook 2.4ghz C2D but have no knowledge between the two I am looking at.

I only notice a two dollar difference but would like to understand exactly what it is I am buying. Please enlighten me.

I am not sure as they are both pc5300 ddr2. But I wouldn't by it from there, it's way too expensive. You can get the same thing at newegg for 54.

I still can't quite figure out why people here buy stuff from owc 😕

the one thats 2 dollars more has a lower CAS latency, which ive heard is better, but i'm not a ram expert, so im not sure how much of a difference there would be in the two.

Personally i'd go with newegg like ddehr026 says

Awesome!

Wow thanks for the link! I'll go ahead and just purchase this one.

Yeah hes right the one has a better latency, but with ram at this speed it won't matter. just go with the egg @ 54 🙂
