A7N8X-X question forddr400 memory

Hi everyone, I have a question. I bought 2 sticks of Geil PC3200 ddr a few
months ago, Can I run my memory at 400? Or am I stuck @333 due to my CPU?
It's an XP2500 running at default speed. <333> I've read in alot of tech
stuff that you can over clock an XP2500 nearly 1ghz over the default. Just
wondering what I can do to speed things up a bit..... my memory does say
that my memory is in "performance" mode single channel...

Oh, and my system is:
Asus A7N8X-X
1Gig Geil pc3200
ATI Radeon 9800 pro
CD,CDR-W 2hd's

Xeon

check out my specs for athlon XP2500, umm running it at 200 (400) is stable
as, im quite sure u dont even need extra cooling, but i did anyways. im

There's a setting in the bios to run the memory at 400 (200 in reality)
while still running the cpu at 166. Aggressive mode. Works just fine I do
it.
