is the 240 pin memo better?...or is it just the type of board it supports?...

No, you need a 184 pin DDR.  DO NOT get 240 pin.

The PC4000 is suppose to be better in performance than the PC3200 so thats up to you if you want to spend the extra cash for it.

[Torch]

lol I know I got the 184 pin one... Im just wondering if mother boards that support that memory type run better or something...

either way, thanks crow for the info!
