is there a way to check what pin your memory cards are? like 184 pin??

[Snake101]

Well...if you have just standard DDR memory...then yes it will be 184-pin

[DrunkenPirate]

All SDRAM DDR DIMMs are 184pin.

[NoSoup4You]

DDR - 184
DDR2 - whatever, lol

[Snake101]

DDR 2 is 240-pin i believe...since you are intel you can go with DDR 2 if you want :)

[NoSoup4You]

Not if he has DDR, I will assume he wants to keep his current RAM. I have DDR2, and honestly, it isn't that big of a difference. People think DDR2 is some great leap. It isn't. It just allows for higher clock speeds. DDR2 is up to like 800Mhz + already. I have 533 (I think) and its more then enough.
