Memory comparable to Cosair pc3700

About a year and a half ago a build a system based around an Asus p4c800-e
deluxe motherboard. On it I placed 1GB of Cosair Extreme TWINX1024-3700
(DDR466) memory (2 pairs of 512GB sticks). I have decided that I want to
add another 1GB of memory. However the Cosair memory mentioned above now
seems to be non existant. I is not listed on the Zipzoomfly site where I
had originally purchased it, nor is it on the Newegg or Monarch Computer
sites. A search on Shopping.com or Pricegrabber.com comes up empty. The
Cosair site itself does not even list it. I guess it has been phased out in
favor of the newer DDR2 memory. Now I realize that optimally I want the new
memory to have the same speed (3700) as my current memory. Doing some
searching using 1GB and pc3700 (or DDR466) I came up with the following:
From shopping.com SimpleTech memory http://snipurl.com/lsud, from
pricegrabber.com
Kingston memory http://snipurl.com/lsuh, and from zipzoomfly.com the list
the Kingston memory shown in the pricegrabber.com link and Patriot memory
http://snipurl.com/lsur. So I guess my question is which of the choices
mentioned above would be most compatable with my current memory and any
brands to avoid?
Thanks in advanced.

It happened to me to. I wanted to upgrade to 2GB and could not find any so I
sold my old memory on ebay and bought Corsair Twin 1GB modules. Good Luck.

For got to mention that I did not want try to mix other brands of memory
with Corsair when running them in dual channel because you can run into
compatibility issues.
