    RAM dropped to PC2700 333mhz from PC3200 400mhz

    RAM dropped to PC2700 333mhz from PC3200 400mhz

    ok.. downloaded CPU-Z... It shows AMD 64 3500 Venice... Revision DH-E6... Family, model and ext family are all "F", ext model is "2F" and stepping is 2. Under technology it shows 90nm. So i gues getting back to my orignal question, should the memory speed have stepped down to 333mhz...
