If you have a spare slot just put a new 1GB stick in.

If your existing 1GB is made up of 2 sticks then you will need to get both 1GB sticks.

What are you upgrading the PC for is it for gaming?

If its not for running modern games you do not need 2 GB of ram you will just be wasting your money and you will not see any performance increase.

Mate do not waste your money you will not see any increase in performance , the only time you would need 2GB of ram was if you were using the PC for the most recent games or video editing e.t.c.

I only have 1GB of ram in my pc and i use it for gaming and its fine , you do not need more than 1 GB of ram save yourself some money.

You would probably be better off getting the fastest CPU the motherboard will take if it hasn't already got the fastest.

You would have to post the motherboard details mate.

If you don't know them download this install and run it it will tell you - http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html
