Man...to tell you the truth I would just go with DDR..how much can you spend?

Well I was looking for some good, fast quality ram considering my value ram is about 2 months old and already died. I was thinking anywhere under $200.

Some computer dood I know recommended DDR2 for me.

under 200 bucks...Id go for this

Mushkin 2X512MB PC4200

That should be plenty good!

Ok sweet I'll get that then. :)

isnt DDR2 RAM 240 pins whereas DDR RAM is 184 pins?

how can a mobo that only supports DDR RAM also use DDR2 RAM???? its a different slot, like tryin to fit a PCI card into a PCI-Express slot......

Shit!

Nice!! The latency is lower in this RAM. Does that mean its faster?
