Hey, im trying to work this out (im new to upgrading and all that stuff, so bare with me)....
At the moment a have 512mb of PC2700 at 333MHZ (i think) (also im trying to get my comp up to scratch for gaming) so any way, im looking to upgrade to 1GB of the stuff. So first i looked at my motherboard specifications here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?product=371891&cc=br&lc=en&dlc=pt&docname=c00032472
Notice it ses "Memory Speed" Then the speed of which i have now. I geuss what i want to know is, is that the MAX it can take (it dont say that but im not sure)...now i know my processors....."thingy" (fsb?) is 333MHZ so im gussing i have to buy memory with the same frequency, but does the "PC2700" matter? (can i go higher)
And also, can i make my processor go to 400MHZ? cus it ses in the specifications page about my motherboard "333/400MHZ" Can i change it then? (cus you know, the faster the better for gaming....)
Any way hope that makes sence...
