Which DDR RAM?
 

Below is a table providing information on the different types of DDR RAM.

Names	Base FSB Speed	DDR RAM Speed
PC-1600 or DDR-200	100MHz	200 MHz
PC-2100 or DDR-266	133MHz	266 MHz
PC-2400 or DDR-300	150MHz	300 MHz
PC-2700 or DDR-333	166MHz	333 MHz
PC-3200 or DDR-400	200MHz	400 MHz

The motherboard's manual provides the information on the types of RAM that the motherboard can run. You must set the RAM clock speed (in the BIOS, or by setting jumpers on the motherboard) to the speed of the RAM that your purchase. This is 133MHz for PC2100 and 166MHz for PC2700 DDR RAM.

Some memory questions

Does it matter which slots I plug my new module in?

In general, you will get the best performance if you put the largest module (in megabytes) in the lowest-numbered slot. For example, if your computer comes with 256MB of removable memory and you want to add 512MB, it would be best to put the 512MB module into slot 0 and the 256MB module into slot 1.

Why Does the Price of Memory Fluctuate?

Supply and demand. Occasional changes in market demands will alter inventories and, therefore, raise or lower prices.

Can you mix and match ECC and non-parity modules?

No. When adding new memory, you need to match what is already in your system. You can determine if your system has parity by simply counting the number of black memory chips on each module. Parity and ECC memory modules have a chip count divisible by three or five. Any chip count not divisible by three or five indicates a non-parity memory module.

Can DDR and SDRAM be used in the same system at the same time?

No. Even though there are systems that support both technologies, you can't have DDR and SDRAM in the same system at the same time. You'll have to choose one or the other.

You can use some of the easy tools to find your exact DDR or DDR2 Memory Upgrades for your Desktop, Laptop or Servers.

DDR SDRAM for desktop computers DIMMs have 184 pins (as opposed to 168 pins on SDRAM, or 240 pins on DDR2 SDRAM), and can be differentiated from SDRAM DIMMs by the number of notches (DDR SDRAM has one, SDRAM has two). DDR for notebook computers SO-DIMMs have 200 pins which is the same number of pins as DDR2 SO-DIMMs. These two specifications are notched very similarly and care must be taken during insertion when you are unsure of a correct match

DDR2 introduces some new features which allow it to ramp up to much higher speeds (with correspondingly higher bandwidth) and higher memory densities, all the while using less power. DDR2 memory uses a new form factor, a 240 pin DIMM (Dual Inline Memory Module) which is *not* compatible with current DDR memory slots. Upcoming chipsets by Intel and other manufacturers will support DDR2 specifically, and are not backwards compatible.
