I have a Compaq CQ 10 100 Netbook and I want to upgrade its 1 G RAM. I see that someones have the denomination of "valueram". What does that mean? Prices are slightly slower. Does it mean bad or mediocre performance? Many thanks and regards.

I believe this may be your computer. Valueram may just be branding. According to the "Service and maintenance information" guide, you can use 200-pin PC2-6400 RAM.

Thanks a real lot. I know what's my netbook (My PC is another thing). I wanted to know the difference between a valueram RAm memory, and a non valueram. Both are Kingston. Many thanks. Regards
