Most modern motherboards support dual-channel memory configurations. In brief, dual-channel technology lets the PC access each of two banks of memory on successive rises and falls of the system clock, rather than only once during the entire clock cycle. The performance gain, while not double, is significant. So, if you have only one stick of memory installed, buy a second one of the same size and type. If you have two sticks installed, buy an additional pair.

Decide how much RAM you need FIRST. Then, go to:
http://www.crucial.com/
Use their "Memory Advisor Tool" to identify your PC's RAM by make and model OR by Scanning your PC (Cool!). They will tell you if you need to buy in PAIRS.
Then, buy new RAM from them (or Kensington, Ultra, etc.) or buy locally, or look for COMPATIBLE second-hand RAM on Kijiji.ca, Craig's List or eBay, to name a few.
