Hey i had a quick question about different types of memory speeds. How much better is a 512MB stick of ram thats SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) than a stick thats 512MB and SDRAM DDR 266 (PC 2100)? I mean will there be really any difference ( im buying the pc2100 kind)? I know that the PC3200 type is faster or something but im not sure what kind of difference in performance there will be, could someone explain?

Not much, no diff to your naked eyes. It's good for overclockers.
