    Hi,
    I upgraded my 5672 hardware with new DDR-667 module, but it works at 533 Mhz speed.
    Acer wrote in the spec page that 667 is maximum speed supported by intel 945pm.

    Help plz.

    how many RAM modules do you have..... did u upgrade both......were these previously running at 533 MHz......... if you upgraded one module only and the other is still at 533 MHz then u will get only 533 MHz as effective output.

    I replaced both 2 x 1gb@533 acer module with 2 x 2gb@667.
    I will mount single 667 as soon as possible, but i don't trust this will solve.
