Upgrading RAM in Black MacBook help

[juiceman311]

I am looking to upgrade my notebook to whatever the max is for memory (3GB I think?). What do you all recommend, and what some good vendors?
I don't know much about computers, but I am proficient enough that I can do this myself. I just don't know what this computer can take or can't take.
This is my current hardware:

Hardware Overview:

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 (per processor): 4 MB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MB21.00A5.B07

All the best choices here

May the speed be with you.

According to this website, your macbook only supports up to 2gb of ram, which should be good for most tasks.

1GB (2x512MB) of 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-5300); supports up to 2GB

If you have one of the first models of MacBook, the limit is 2 GB of RAM. Those models have the Core Duo processors. The later Core 2 Duo models do support up to 3 GB of RAM.

@Juice The core 2 duo that you have can support 3GB of RAM. This can be achieved by putting in a 1GB + 2GB RAM. There is an advantage to having a matched pair that will give you a little bit better performance than unmatched. With this in mind, if you were to put in 4GB (2 x 2GB) your amount of RAM will be 3+GB (something around 3.2 to 3.3) -GDF

This was my understanding of the situation as well. Thanks for your help guys.
