Kingston ValueRAM
This single 1GB DDR2-667 module provides a basic, unbuffered CL5 memory upgrade for legacy systems using 240-pin slots. Its primary differentiator is simply enabling functionality in older desktops that require this specific, now-obsolete PC2-5300 standard. This module is best for maintaining aging office PCs or industrial machines where replacing a failed stick is the only goal, not performance.
