    hi frnz,
    i have a compaq v2374ap with config:
    Processor Intel Celeron M Processor 360 (1.4GHz, 1MB L2 cache, 400MHz FSB) Cache 1MB Level-2 Cache
    Standard memory 256MB (1 x 256MB) DDR SDRAM (333MHz) pc2700

    i wanted to upgrade the memory to 1gb(2x512mb) or 2gb(2x1gb) but i want to utilize the maximum FSB speed. i have two options with memory either pc2700 ddr-333mhz(that hp recommends) or pc3200 ddr-400mhz which im interested in(its cheaper too).

    i read some costumer feedbacks for crucial saying that it works but none of them had my configuration so i wanted to know will i get more than 333mhz by upgrading to two identical modules of 400mhz pc3200. if yes how much and what is the calculation or should i fall back upgrading to pc2700.
    thanx in advance
