I recently ordered a 256 mb stick of Samsung PC2700 DDR memory, from essential computer, and they sent me a different one than the one in the picture :(

Anyway, I did some research, and the only difference between the one I got and the one I ordered was a differing Auto and Self refresh rate. The one I got has a rate of 15.6us refresh interval(4K/64ms refresh), the one I wanted has a rate of 7.8us refresh interval(8K/64ms refresh). Also, the max frequency of the one I got is 166, the one I wanted is 167, dont know if that matters either. Does the AUto & Self refresh interval matter?

I dont want to waste my time and make a big deal if it doesnt matter, I just wanna get my new computer running.....

Does anyone have any insight on this? Thanks




Heres the links to the data pages:
