SIMM

If compared to DIMMS they would be considered expensive
16mb @$16
64mb @$69
Nothing major would happen only that the gold is considered to last longer and provide a better contact,but have not had any problems using silver plated simm chips

SIMM's are fairly cheap right now, not as much so as DIMM's, but can be had for pretty good prices. I've heard that using gold pins in tin sockets can cause corrosion, but I've never had this problem. I've used silver and gold plated memory in tin plated sockets, and have never had any problem doing this. Hope this helps.
