Here's a spec sheet to refer to: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ws670/en/ug_en/about.htm#wp1053318

Your system supports a maximum speed of 400mhz. You CAN install faster RAM... but it won't go faster than 400 mhz.

As to increasing the amount of RAM, do you use more than 4GB RAM while operating? Most people don't, and far less need more than 8. I'm all for maxing out specs, but if you don't need the RAM, it won't improve your system at all.
