I'm looking to buy some ddr memory from crucial and I've noticed
that non-parity sticks are a little bit cheaper why is that and
what does it mean.

Parity is a method of error checking... Check to see if your board supports it. Usually only used in servers and high end workstations.

I'm gonna use asus a7a266 so I should go with non-parity it's
for home use really.
