it really depends on what mobo/chip you're using really - if you have an athlon you'll use sdram or ddr (ddr if you have a semi-new mobo), if you have a p4 it could be sdram, ddr, or rdram - i'd say go for ddr if you're using an athlon (pc2400 or 2700) and rdram for a p4 (pc1066 is out now for the newer fsb's too) - buy brand name, mushkin corsair crucial are all good, and spend according to your budget :)

well not really - what does your mobo take? that's what i'd go buy, unless you're planning on buying a whole new mobo - rdram would probably be the fastest, just ahead of ddr - but there's different rated speads and different latencies, etc. so it kinda depends on how much you wanna spend - depending on what you're doing, you could buy 512mb of anything and you might not notice a speed difference - again it just depends
