- Which is the older technology: 3-chip SIMMs or 9-chip SIMMs? My PC
- takes 3-chip SIMMs, and I have noticed that 9-chip SIMMs are far more
- easily available in the marketplace. Are 3-chip SIMMs an older
- technology, and likely to disappear from the market in the near
- future? Or are they simply newer, and not as widespread yet in the market?
-
- Are 3-chip SIMMs incompatible with 9-chip SIMMs?

- Thanks in advance,
- Siang-Chun.
