Number of Pins in Memory Question

I am buying some 2700 DDR SDRAM memory, but they have different pins
on that type of memory. Some have 184. Other ones said SO-DDR and
had 144 and PC133 had 168. It doesn't say in my manual or online how
many pins the memory module should have. Any help is appreciated.
Soyo SY-K7VME.

You need DDR with 184 pins, 144 pin is for laptops, 168 pin is older SDRAM
not DDR

184 pins, non-ECC, unbuffered, PC2700 (DDR333), Soyo recommends Kingston
brand, and I've had good luck with that brand. -Dave

Three general categories,
the old SDRAM,
the new DDRAM,
and the funny stuff that needs to fit inside that tiny laptop case.

If you know you need DDR 2700, and it isn't a laptop, there is only
one choice, the generic stuff that everybody buys.
And a second with google for Soyo SY-K7VME shows DDRAM.

You need RAM with 184 pins for DDR. And PC133 is NOT DDR.
