PC3200 and PC2700 are both different speed ratings of Double Data Rate memory for motherboards that have different frontside busses (IIRC 333Mhz and 400Mhz). DDR is the step up from the old SDRAM that PC133 is. PC3200 is the fastest of the group, but there are also speeds available up to PC4400 for people that overclock their frontside busses.

If you specify what CPU & motherboard you are running, we can tell you what the fastest and best memory you can buy is...
