I have currently:
RAM:
ocz3p1333lv4gk (2x2gb)
DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)
Timing 7-7-7-20
Cas Latency 7
Voltage 1.65V

MOTHERBOARD:
m4a89gtd pro/usb3
4 x DIMM, Max. 16 GB, DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1333/1066 ECC,Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory
Dual Channel memory architecture
*AMD AM3 100 and 200 series CPU support up to DDR3 1066MHz
**Due to OS limitation, when installing total memory of 4GB capacity or more, Windows® 32-bit operation system may only recognize less than 3GB. Hence, a total installed memory of less than 3GB is recommended.
***Refer to www.asus.com for the memory QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists).

WIN7 64-bit.

You will be installing the maximum amount of ram that this board supports. I see no reason as to why you would need to add an additional 2GB of ram.

Hi, I think you have misunderstood. I currently have 4 GB of ram, but my motherboard supports four slots and a total of 16 GB ram. I have no idea what kind of extra 2gb of ram I should buy.

Apologies, then it is recommended that you purchase the same vendor RAM that you currently have, if not available make sure the additional 2GB of ram has identical timings and voltage settings or you will run into problems.
