you can use any brand of Ram as long as it's the ram for your machine. Go to Crucial.com. 4 GB is under $80 (US). It is simple to put it in yourself.
Could be a faulty Battery. Both would be covered under warranty, but you'd have to send it to them, but call them first
 
Macbook frequently Shutdown

I already removed 1 RAM and run the system with other RAM but still not working than try another Removed RAM its also same.i dont think its about RAM or Battery.may be its motherboard.
any one has any idea.

Thanks
