Question How to tell the size of old ram.

How can you tell how the size of older ram? i have a older computer im trying to upgrade, and i have a few other computers im using for parts, the size of the ram is not written on the chips, and googleing the serial/part numbers doesnt help much. ive figured out that one of the chips is 8mb, ive got another that has
8 memory chips per side, and its a "lite on 20v0, 94v-0,E98641,2032c" thats all the writing on it. the processor is 133mhz, so its really old. how can i tell how big each ram chip is by looking at it, ive got about 10 to figure out?

Most of the time, there's not an easy way to just look at it and tell. Why not just try them out?
