Fawk, i just bought some new ram, and though i bought ddr266, but just looked at the box and it says ddr333.... I already installed it, and the computer seems to be running ok? Is this gonna be a huge problem?

Not a problem at all. It'll just run at the slower speed if that's what you have it set for.

Hey i waste my time in off topic. I honestly haven't read a hardware article since i built my computer 2 years ago. I handed in my nerd badge back then.
