Most of the major memory manufacturers like Crucial, Corsair, Kingston, etc., have a configuration tool on th eir websites so you can choose the kind of computer you have (make, model, etc.) and get the memory you need.

If your computer is home made, or you don't know what kind of computer it is, or it's not listed in their configuration tool, you'll probably have to get the specifics of your memory (pin count, speed, etc.) and look around for some memory that will work.

Good luck.

All you'll need is info on your motherboard.  If you check its make and model then info is available on the net for appropriate mem types  and capacities....
