I have a Gateway notebook with 1 ram memory slot that has a stick of 2gb DDR2 667 MHz memory. Will a stick of 2gb DDR2 PC2-6400 CL=6 Unbuffered NON-ECC DDR2-800 1.8V 256Megx 64 make a big differenc in speed??
Thanks in advance

Will you be keeping the old memory installed? if you are than you will notice a nice increase as you would have 4GB. If you are just swapping the 667 for 800mhz RAM the speed wont be noticable (you would notice the money missing from your wallet more). If you only have 1 slot try getting a 4GB stick, you will notice a difference there.
