I have a question about computer Ram - do you have an answer?

Question

I have a Gateway NX570x I do not understand the Ram configuration.  All the pc2 5300 ddr2 ram I see is configured so there are 8 memory chips on each side. I think its called 128 x 64 but my computer ram only has 4 chips on each side I think its called 256 x 64 .  I am having a difficult time finding the 256 x 64 configuration that my system needs.  My question is are the two configurations compatible? Can I which to the 128 x 64 will it work in my system.  Yes I am sure my notebook uses ddr2 pc2 5300 see this link:   copy and paste
