533mhz versus 667mhz DDR2 Memory - What's the real world difference?

[DigDug]

With this as my processor: Processor Intel® Core? Duo Processor T2500 (2GHz/667MHz FSB), and the fact that while I want to play some games, I'm not by any means a "gamer":


Q1: Is there a real world difference between the memory frequencies in the title, that justifies the huge price difference?
Q2: Is there some special type of memory that is "shared dual" or does that simply mean running with two chips of RAM of the same value? (i.e two sticks of 1GB as I plan to do)?

Thanks guys!
