My Motherboard is a Jetway V266B and in the manual it says it can support
DDR (PC2100) RAM
http://www.jetway.com.tw/evisn/produ...266b/v266b.htm



Can I put DDR 400Mhz (PC3200) Memory in it? I went to a website to check out ram and they seemed to think it could. I will upgrade most of my pc sometime in the not to distant future and I would like to start with 1GB of newer ram.

The slots support up to 2.0GB of RAM of either type (Note: you can only use ONE type of RAM at any time!)
I got that from here http://www.ripnet-uk.com/RipNet_v2/r...ay/page1.shtml
You wont be able to use the PC3200...you could get 1gb of pc2100 ram and your computer would probably run heaps better.

I wouldnt risk buying the PC3200 and it not running..Although newegg.com does allow you to return ram if it doesnt work. But I would stick with the PC2100.

PC3200 should run in there.
It'll just run at the lower bus speed, effectively making it PC2100.
Overclocking is for geeks. I'm such a geek.

You might find that, in some cases, the faster RAM is cheaper than the slower stuff, which is harder to come by due to being obsolete.

Yeah I will upgrade so if I can use the ram in the meantime it will be a big help.
