I've been looking around New Egg, and found this card, but I'm not entirely sure if it's better than what I have.
All I know about what I have now is that it's DDR2, it's clocked at 333MHz (300MHz actual, according to CPU-Z), and is in the amount of 1GB.

Could anyone tell me if this is better than what I have now (note: I plan on buying two sticks, for a total of 2GB), or if I should just wait to get some better RAM?

I personally like Corsairs products, so that's a good choice.

However, buying RAM isn't easy if you don't know a thing or two about hardware. (The RAM has to suit your Motherboard, etc.)

The easiest thing for you is to tell us what Motherboard you have.

Ram is cheap. You're mobo likely supports only DDR2. Don't take that one, Take a DDR2 @800mhz. That site looks a tad bit expensive, dunno, i think you can find cheaper ram so look around. I recommend Corsair or Kingston as the manufacturer (if you want quality) ^^

you should be fine with any (desktop) DDR2 ram, if it's faster then what your board supports it will just run slower, same for if it has a higher capacity - so look at those and don't aim to go over, but if it's cheaper to go over (it may be for older components), don't worry about it
