How is he going to find the exact same memory he has and dual-channel it? Very poor advice.

OP: This the answer to your problems:

With this, your memory performance will be much higher, and you'll be able to overclock the E6300 up to 3.5Ghz. And it's only 39$!

there are ALOT of tutorials. you will probably receive more precise help if you include your motherboard make/model in the search.
