Hey Geeks (memory)
 
Whats the difference between

DDR2 PC2-5300C5 200-Pin SODIMM Module

and

200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC3200 memory module?

Looking to upgrade vernas laptop. One seems more expensive than the other.

If you have a motherboard that requires DDR2 then DDR will not work, and vice-versa I believe.

DDR2 is the next gen from DDR, now I beleive that we have DDR3 out as well

More expensive = faster = better.

However as its for Verna's laptop you SHOULD be ok to go with the cheap stuff - the speed difference wont be THAT noticable if all she is doing is email and surfing for porn.

Only really matters when it comes to stuff like games.

Use the tool on the Crucial Memory website to get their recommendation.

David, he's talking about the difference between DDR2 and DDR, and right now I'd be surprised if you could find DDR cheaper than the same amount of DDR2. ;)

Good point - missed that aspect and only saw the speed stuff.

Still think the Crucial website is the way to go tho :)
