I have a question, my computer is really slow and I was told it was told 2 diff stories, 1 tech said I had enough ram (memory) another said I didn't.

So I'm going to get some, my computer specs are here:

and the 2 sticks of 1GB ea ram that I want to get is here:

http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-2-x-1GB-DDR-...3D10%26ps%3D63

I don't know much about whether or not the 'brand name' of the memory is important or not but the one on ebay seemed like a good deal and is from a power seller. Can you please take a look and see if it is good enough for me to get? I'm having a lot of issues with my computer.
I was also told that even though when the specs say that the memory in my computer now are 333MHZ it's alright to use 400MHZ on my computer. Is that correct?

Thanks for anyone that can help me...
