Is there a difference between PC2 5300 and PC2 5400 RAM

And if I multiply the frequency, 667MHz, by the bus width, 8 bytes, I get 5336 - somewhere in between.

Is there any difference between these RAM sticks?

I don't really see any differance between them, they are probably using differant chips, but hard to know that for sure.

Normaly PC5300 is 667mhz, and 5400 is usualy 675mhz, but those both say 667.

Yeah, it was a boring question. I was just wondering if there was some kind of compatability "gotcha" I wasn't seeing.

Just looking for memory to go along with those AMDX2 Brisbanes. I have no DDR2 and if I want to run Windows inside of Linux, I'm going to need a fair amount of RAM.
