I think your PC has DDR1 RAM and you could expand it up-to 2GB.
And a 1GB DDR1 Stick now a days cost 2.2k where as today one can buy 4GB DDR3 RAM for 2.1k.
So, IMO save up a little bit and upgrade your PC.

Dude, you have DDR1 RAM where as the RAM you are talking about is DDR3. So, to go for DDR3 RAM you have to go for a complete system overhaul.

That mobo is having 2 DDR2 slots with maximum of 4 GB support but they run in single channel mode. So you can get a 2 GB DDR2 module @ 1.4K from Kingston/Transcend and add it to make the total ram as 3 GB. Try to find 667 MHz ram but it is little hard today as most of them come with 800 MHz speed.

I think you mean more brands for ram by saying more Rams because size wize your mobo doesn't support more than 4 GB. There are some high end OCZ and Corsair rams are available but their price is very huge and not at all justified for a dying breed. 2ndly the memory controller of your motherboard is not a very efficient one and plugging very high performance ram won't give you any real life performance advantage. So better stick with Kingston or Transcend.
