    Hi, i have a FE590 and would like to know what the maximum memory spped you can put in it. Sony says 4200 @ 533 but i read a article here that a guy put in 5300 @ 667. Can anyone verify if 667 works? If so please message me, becuase i would like to buy ASAP. THX!

    If it's RAM frequency that you are talking about, a 667 would work just as fine as the 533.

    Yep. I foresee no problems,but I suggest you run memtest 86+ after buying and installing it for around 8 hours(leave it overnight, IMO) so that if the memory has any trouble you can replace it or ask for an exchange.
