It really depend on what kind of motherboard you are goind to use, and what processor. Some guidelines are:

AMD processor +new motherboard go with DDRAM PC2100
AMD processor with old motherboard go with SDRAM PC133
Intel P4 processor +new motherboard go with RAMBUS a k a PC800
Intel P3 processor +new/old motherboard go with SDRAM PC133
SODIMM: Nothing you need.

What's good memory??
Well Crucial is a very inexpensive and reputable company that makes topline RAM, go with Crucial
