What Ram do I need for this Motherboard?

    Any help or comments appreciated.

    This is the motherboard:

    http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?action=info&p=22667&t=845&l=2&AvdID=1&CatID=10&GrpID=5&s=pl

    In the blurb it says DDR SDRAM, does this mean either DDR or SDRAM? or something else?

    I have 128MB PC133 ram, would it be compatible with this motherboard?

    I think I'll need 256mb ram, can you link to the correct ram please?

    Also, what do you think of that motherboard, as a cheap upgrade for an old PC, the PC would be only for MS office and internet use?

    well theres SDRAM and DDR-SDRAM

    asus generally make good motherboards-yes

    probably not, it doesn't seem to support sd-ram only ddr-ram

    Thanks theciscokid, I was thinking that it wouldn't be compatible too, I'm going to stick it in, when I get it anyway to try it :)

    Does anyone have a link to the correct ram?

    okay. just realise that you may **** up your motherboard or the ram doing that... if it won't take it don't try.

    i could be wrong but isn't the form factor of sdram different to ddr so you shouldn't be able to insert the incorrect type.
