My order from Crucial is on hold at the moment.... I had pc 2700 on the way but am now considerin 3200

Can I order the 3200 and run it dual channel? Or do I need to get special ram for it? I plan to overclock a litte, but I wont be changing the fsb, I will be OCin by multi only...

Any suggestions are welcome!

Which chip are you getting? Only the Barton 3200+ will run @ 200mhz fsb. If you're not bothering to o/c the FSB and you're not getting a Barton 3200+, then don't bother getting PC3200. PC2700 runs @ 166 which will be the default fsb speed of a 2500+ and some tbreds. Some of the lower tbreds use a 133mhz fsb, so PC2100 will work.
