2x1GB Patriot PC2-6400 Memory Sticks for $89.99 Shipped

I have a question I have an intel motherboard I went to crucial.com and it showed me compatible memory cards most were ddr333-500 but (IT RECOMMENDED SOME BRAND) im not familiar with. My memory cards right now are 2 256 kingston cards- PC-2700 my pc is about 3 years old and I was just wondering if this card would be compatible. PC2-6400*

(The max my pc can hold is 4gb of memory/ NON-ECC/ its around 2.6ghz hyper thread if that helps)

DDR2 memory is not backwards compatible with DDR memory, which I think you have. DDR2 (like the memory stick on sale) memory sticks have 240-pins while the older DDR memory sticks (like the one which I think your motherboard takes) have 184-pins.

Hope this helps.

You have SDRAM, so no.

Go through that list.

No the ram you have is 'older' / different type.
