I needed to upgrade an computer that was a little behind in the RAM department, and I wanted it fast. So i found this on Best Buy's website and they had it in stock at my local store. The computer is now running better than before and it did not cost me to much to do it.

I put one in my computer which doubled the amount of memory I had and it made a big difference in performance. I bought another one for a 2nd computer I have which only went from 3 to 4 GB (I took a 1 GB strip out) and it hasn't made quite the impact but you can't beat the price. (was on sale at the time too).

PNY is a very good company when it comes to upgrading computer specs. The computer I bought had a 3GB ram and I just replaced the 1GB with the 2GB that I bought. Even though it was one GB, the computer is slightly faster. I was even able to price match with Amazon, so the price was amazing. I am very happy.

I noticed an immediate significant improvement in my computer's performance once I installed the PNY - Optima 2GB PC2-6400 DDR2 DIMM Memory upgrade.
This is a simple upgrade that can be done by even the most novice of pc enthusiasts. So, if you are interested in buying additional memory for your pc, then this is the upgrade for you.
Simple to install, and extremely affordable—buy it!!!

Got 2 of these for my moms PC because she only had 1 GB of ram. She now has 5 GB after getting two of these. They have worked perfectly, no issues with installing it. Her PC is so much quicker.

Adding RAM

My computer was slowing down, freezing and giving me a fit after I updated the operating software. The update gave the minimum requirements which my computer did meet. After trying almost everything I decided to try to add some more RAM to my computer. It had two one half GB chips so I replaced them with two chips of two GB each. Wow, what a difference this made. My computer runs great and can run multiple programs with no slowing down problems at all. Don't go by the minimum requirements recommended by updates. If your computer is slow or freezing up add some RAM.

The 2 GB desktop ram was easy to install in a HP Pavilion Desktop. It has a lifetime warranty which is nice. The price was reasonable. The confusing part was the packaging which was different from the one listed on the Best Buy website. The salesperson checked and confirmed it was the same by checking the SKU.

These memory chips were on sale are are a good product at a good price. They were easy to install and updrade our computer with. Forgot that memory needed to be updated in pairs and sales person didn't say a word about it so was a bit disappointed about that but recovered just fine and product works as advertised.

My mom had a 5 year old Dell desktop throwing a fault code for ram failure. I took a chance buying the card, made an educated guess as to the failed card location, guessed right (choose the highest heat location) and wah lah, it was fixed. Mom says it runs twice as fast now too(doubled the ram from 1 to 2 gig in the slot).

I purchased the RAM because I was noticing a sluggish speed on my computer. I noticed the memory was being used up pretty quick, so I decided that I should buy more RAM. I found this online and picked it up in the store. It was a great price for the amount of RAM. It works great for what I need it for.
