    I'm sorry if this has been covered before, but I have an acer aspire 5672 with the x1600 ati graphics card and the 120 gig hd. What I want to know is can my laptop accept/run with 1GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300). Currently there are two 512 MB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 533(PC2 4200). Do I need to stick with the 533 speed or can the laptop also work with the 667 speed? Also, if anyone has any recommendations for memory send them my way :D

    Any help would be most appreciated


    Cheers,
    Allen

    the laptop will work with a 667 MHz.. i don't know why it comes with a 533MHz.. as it is a stupid decision... but anyway you won't see a big improvement..
