Hey everyone, new to the forums and I don't know why I hadn't joined a long time ago.
Anyway, I'm looking to upgrade from 4GB to 8GB of RAM because I just installed Windows XP via Boot Camp and I seem to be getting the rainbow a little more. My question is this-Should I go with the $100 upgrades I can get(and actually, I was reading around the forum and some people say they are getting 8GB cheaper) or is buying more expensive RAM worth it? I've found good deals multiple places, but this is what I'm thinking of right now-

Any suggestions on whether I should get either of these or some other RAM from somewhere else like Newegg or somewhere else? Thanks!
