What do I need to know when buying new RAM for my PC?

Posted: 26 Feb 2013 05:14 AM PST

I checked my current RAM and it says it is KVR1333D3S8N9G/2G Kingston 2GB-DDR3-1333 CL9 Value Ram 256x64 ... so it's 2GB RAM. And I wanna buy another 8GB to put in my other slot so its 10GB in total. Now what do I need to know when buying it? So I don't buy wrong one and it would fit in? I looked up another 1333 RAM model online cos I heard that if it's same numbers here and both same they work faster together. So I looked up Kingston 8GB 1333MHz DDR3 Non-ECC CL9 SODIMM KVR1333D3S9/8G. Then I went to crucial.com and scanned my PC and it say's my PC supports DDR3 PC3-12800, DDR3 PC3-10600, DDR3 PC3-14900 memory types... nothing was said about 1333! Also that option what I looked online says it's Non-ECC but my current one, idk if it's same. It just says KVR1333D3S8N9G/2G Kingston 2GB-DDR3-1333 CL9 Value Ram 256x64. Also what is Value Ram 256x64? I can't find anything about this at non of online stores when they sell RAM, is this important? Anyways... I'm SOOOOO confused! Can you help me please? I just wanna buy 8GB RAM and I'm afraid I will buy wrong one and it won't fit or wont work. What should I buy? :/ By the way, my motherboard is H61M-VS, according to crucial.com...
