Default need help finding RAM

hey there, if anyone can be nice enough to help me hunt down a stick of ram that i need, that would be nice. but first heres the story..

when i built my pc my budget only allowed me to get 1 stick of RAM, which I got from newegg. but shortly after i got my pc and stuff, the RAM that i got for my PC was taken off the site and isnt sold on newegg now. I was gonna get another stick of the same RAM to ensure best compatiabilty for dual channel. But ive looked at lots of sites now, even the manufacturers site, but they dont sell it at their site, just tell you which sites sell their products. I checked them (including newegg again) but the RAM i was looking for wasnt there... so here i am asking for help to find the stick i need. heres the info on it

Manufacturer- Kingmax
RAM type- 512MB PC3200 DDR400 CL 2.5
Model- MPXC22F-38KT3R

Thats the model i want, the MPXC22F cause thats what i have right now. If somones good at finding these kinda things then i would appreciate it if you helped me out, thanx

If you cant find the exact match try the crucial memeroy advisor here Memory upgrades, graphics cards, flash media, and usb storage at Crucial.com it may turn out to be cheaper to buy a 1GB stick than add a second 513mb.

koolj: If you cant get the same stick then your best off getting at least the same manufacturer, have you tried ebay?

Have you tried the crucial memory advisor mentioned above by sbowler to see what would be compatible? I like to use the same brans when possible, but ive mixed brands before with no side effects, as long as theyre the same specs. Heres one i saw with your specs from Tiger Direct:
Corsair Value Select 512MB PC3200 DDR 400MHz CL2.5 VS512MB400 at TigerDirect.com
not a bad price either.
