Cheapest 8GB Ram?

Hey guys I have a computer with 2gb DDR3 right now. I'm slowly in the upgrade process, but right now I need some help. I am 15 years old so money is really hard to come by. Right now in my hand lies $80 and no more. I was hoping I could find ram elsewhere than Crucial because their taxes raise the price to $85 for my computer. Here's my ram specs, I'm guessing that I have to get this exact ram? If I do not, link me to the cheapest 8GB DDR3 geared a little toward gaming, but the timings don't really matter. Here is what I currently have. PC3-10700, do I have to get this? Will somebody link me to a good option? I love this website. :P

    This is higher profile stuff, if you need low-profile there a bunch of good options. Just check out newegg and sort the RAM options per your needs. Good luck!
  2. Also, could you post your computer model or motherboard model so that we can see how many RAM slots there are, and other information to find the best RAM for you?

    So these will work with an Intel DH61WW motherboard? Thanks.
  5. Your MB only support up to 1333MHZ, if you buy the RAM about 1333Mhz speed, you just waste the money, because the RAM will default to 1333MHz.

    You'd never notice the difference in speed anyway, more than likely.
