Simply RAM that's made to be guaranteed to run at 150mhz. Similar to RAM being made, guaranteed to run at 133mhz being called PC133.

basically these rams are pc-133 but they test them to see how far the memory will overclock. so they test a lot of pc-133's and hand pick the most overclockable. pc-150 ram have been advertised for a while now. they even have pc-160 and pc-175 wow!!!

If you can't beat 'em kill 'em
athlon "SLOTA" thunderbird 700@1050mhz

So what you are telling me is you can overclock RAM?
hmmm missed that along the way somehow.
Know anywhere I can get some info on this?
It's incredible how much I've learned so far since deciding I wanted to build a new PC.
Obviously I have more to learn. (LOL)

Your ram normally runs at system bus speed, which means that if you have, say, a PIII 866 (133MHz FSB) and you overclock it to, say, 975 (150MHz FSB) your ram will also be overclocked from 133 to 150. Some ram cannot take the abuse, so people have capitalized on selling ram that is garrunteed to work.
The reason I said "normally" is that some motherboards support seperate system bus to ram timing (100/133, 133/100, and 66/100). The ram speed is still increase in proportion to the system bus, the base speed is the only difference.
