I am currently interested in getting two of these. Will they work? And why are they so cheap in comparison to other 2GB sets?
 
Those memory upgrades should work with your PC.

I have no idea why Kingston RAM is cheaper than most other brands, but I have upgraded my RAM through Kingston Technologies many times and so far, I have never had a bad experience with it.

Depending on what you are going to use it for, you might want to check if your computer can use faster types of RAM.
