Something like this RAM will do well.

But if you don't need that much RAM any of these should do.

Could someone else please check these, I'm not so good with the old RAM types

DDR200/DDR233 has long past been obsolete even for older computers and it's so rare even 256mb of it sells for almost $100 at most US suppliers. I can't imagine it would be any better over there. Not worth the effort.

That board supports DDR266, which is what I linked to.
