the ideal situation is to get another Kingstom stick @ the same speccs. If you get different RAM the difference will be visible in benchmarks only and, visual on your mobo )

You don't mix and match, get the same one that you have with the same specs (2GB, frequency, timings, etc.).

If you don't find or you want something more powerfull, then replace your current RAM with a new one.
Before doing so, check the compatibility of your motherboard (DDR2 only, DRR3?), dual/tri/quad channel?, laptop or desktop memory, etc.

yea it is DDR2 but i can't find Kingston one so it will be Fine if i get another one not kingston Right ? i mean both of them will work fine together or will be problem ?

Take another Kingston model, or another brand is fine, such as Corsair which are very good also.

Identical specs would be best in your case, but the best thing would be to buy a new set all together as the sticks would have been tested and run together to ensure proper/full performance.

The only way to know is to test. The actual discrepancies are usually very minimal, but you do want to have identical sets ideally. (Or two with the same timings and frequency.) Otherwise you may have to adjust your RAM timings and/or frequency to meet the better RAM sticks tested settings.
