can I overclock with PC2100 ram?

Hey,
I'm expecting my new cpu and mobo combo (abit BH7 and p4 2.4b C1 stepping) and was wondering if I will HAVE to upgrade do fast ram before attempting to OC.. I have 512mbs of samsung pc2100 ram (sandra identifies it as "Samsung M3 68L3223DTL-CB3 PC2700U" for some reason) - if I want to try to push my fsb to around 166 will I HAVE to upgrade to faster ram? Thanks for any help!

It looks like you have PC2700, it should overclock to 166 @CAS2 no problem
I have PNY sticks with Sams chips PC2100 & they run @ 167 CAS2
Happy overspeeden
