Nothing complicated about it, buy the right kind and stick it in. My 
research indicates that it is more efficient to have a single large 
chip than several small ones, so buy it in one chip if your MOBO 
will support it. Also, while you're at it, if you can afford to, buy 
more. I've had CS only a few days and I'm already going to 2G of ram 
from one. It seems editing in 16-bit raises the overhead a lot!
