Its DEFINETLY cheaper to buy later on extra 512 memorychip. 130$, thats a robbery. However, i dunno if warranty allows you to add anything yourself, so you might be on your own if something goes wrong.

I think buying from New Egg would save you alot more money. I would buy it later since its easy to install on a desktop.

Guess your limited to this memory stick for you computer if you wanna shop at New Egg.
