Netbook - RAM upgrade advice

BadBehaviour

Hi,
I would like to buy new RAM for my netbook to speed it up. I know it can support up to 2GB. It currently has the stock 1GB module.
With CPU-Z I saw the RAM installed is Samsung, PC2-6400, 400Mhz, DDR2. In another tab called "Memory", I see DDR3 though.
I know where to look to buy RAM but I am unsure about the frequency etc., so that's why I would like some help.
I found some SODIMM PC2-6400 but 800Mhz, which is not what CPU-Z tells me about my module.
I was gonna buy a new laptop on finance, but I decided I'll save up for it instead and in the meantime upgrade the netbook I already have (there's not much upgradeable, though). Many thanks in advance .:)

another module of the same as what you have should be fine (edit: I was assuming more than 1 slot)

this should help

follow the links for your netbook model or run their system scanner

What is your netbook model?

Hi, thanks, I used the scanner on the Crucial website and purchased the RAM there.
Netbook is eMachines 350.

What you need is 2 GB laptop DDR2 RAM (SO DIMM 200-pin) New @ £20 - 25. You could find second handed at ebay ~ £15

Your supposed to use the scanner to get the type - then buy cheaper elsewhere.

Crucial wanted £22 for mine new - £7.95 off ebay.
