I have a dell Dimension 510E, with P4 duel core cpu, its pretty powerful. However, I only have DDR2 512mb ram. I would like to upgrade it to 1gb. I looked up DDR2 RAM. I noticed that there were more than just one type. there are PC3200 and PC4500 and something else.
What are the differences?

This refers to the different speeds of the RAM. You should get the same speed as you have now. If you don't know what it is now, this tool should help you:http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php

Just make sure the speed of the RAM you get is compatible with your motherboard.
