does my mobo support DDR333?

[phase1]

I have ga-7vtxh+ mobo (VIA 266A)
I want to upgrade memory, and I couldn't figure out if it supports DDR333.. does any one know?
thanks.

Yes, it will run fine on your motherboard. You will have to overclock to get 166MHz FSB (DDR333) though, but it will step down to DDR266 @ 133FSB natively.

What do you mean by that?

What he means is that at the default 133fsb, you can only run at DDR266, but the board can oc to 166fsb, and as a result will run the ram at DDR333 instead of DDR266

Thank you both.
