232 pin & 184 pin pc1066 RDram?

Whats the difference and are they interchangeable?

help, I think i have 184 in my computer but I just realised I might win an auction for 232 pin.

not sure but isn't 184 DDR.

I just looked online and it looks like 184-pin is 16-bit and 232-pin is 32-bit (http://www.shop4memory.com/products/rdram.asp)

Since they have a different number of pins, it's almost certain that they aren't interchangeable.

What motherboard do you have? The manual for it should say which kind of RIMMs you need.

yea 232 pin is 32 bit

basically with 32 u only need one module to get full rd benifits - this explains it fairly well http://www6.tomshardware.com/motherb...rambus-02.html

oops...forgot to answer the second question - no should be different length and thus not interchangable
