According to the Asus website the P4B533-V supports DDR266 memory. But in a recent article on Tom's Hardware it claims DDR333 memory can be used. Will the motherboard automatically detect the DDR333 or is there a special procedure to get it to work?
Thanks

it will "detect" the memory as whatever the multiplier is set to. So if it's set to 4:5 it will come up as 333. If it's set to the default it will come up as 266.
