DDR400 or DDR333?

[pradeepka]

Hi,


Im planning to get a new pc , an AMD ATHLON XP 2800+ with an ASUS A7N8X Motherboard which has dual channel DDR400 support . I would like to know if i should go for a DDR400 or DDR333 RAM , as the processor is a 333 mhz FSB.

Ive read that DDR333 provides less latency than DDR400 in case of 333MHZ FSB processors like athlon xp 2800 and above.Is that true?

Will the processor and memory be in sync . in case i go for DDR333 . And is there any issue in going for DDR 400 ?

Please advice.

DDR333, Kingston has some SWEET HyperX RAM that runs 2-2-2-5-1T. I have 512mb Kingston HyperX RAM and I'm running it at 2-2-2-6-1T, coupled with my Barton 2500+ it's fast.
