Best ram for me to buy under $250

Alright, I want to buy 1gig of ram (1 stick). I have 4 memory slots on my mobo, and 2 are used with 2x512 DDRAM 1GB TWINX CORSAIR sticks.  I want to buy something similar I THINK, in 1 stick form instead, so I still have room for imporovement later.

I'm an extremem multitasker when it comes to me and my computer, and I may have 10-15 programs running simultaneously, all serving some purpose.  My computer is fine (only 3 months old). I just want something to give it a little more boost.  So I figure the ram would be a good choice.  What suggestions specifically could you guys offer for a great choice for ram, or some similar alternative to suit my needs??  I was looking at this, but don't know: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-145-505&depa=1

PS. My processor is CPU AMD 64 |3700+ ATHLON 64 754 RT

thx.

I don't think it supports it since there is no reference to dual channel - if that's the case, I'd go with the one you suggested yourself.
