upgrading SD ram

[swap_too_fast]

hi friends, i am using my 1.7 ghz P4 machine with only "128 mb 133Mhz SD ram", it is too slow & i want to upgrade my ram upto 512 mb. I have 845G motherboard with 2 sd ram slots. I have gone to buy ram module of 512mb, but they said its not even manufactured yet, then i decided to buy 2 256mb ram modules, they said single 256mb module is come for Rs.1630.

PLease guide me in this, is there 512mb module available in market & if yes what is the prize of this & what is the prize of 256mb module?
thanx in advance :D

bye, have a nice day.

Is quite cheap there, specially the 512 mb version. Here, i'll get 512 MB SDRAM for approx 3k.
