The specs in the link you cited indicate that the memory bus maxes-out at 667MHz. This is the equivalent of PC2-5300. If you're buying PC2-6400 memory, it will run at PC2-5300 speed. Given that, if you have a choice between some PC2-5300 memory and PC2-6400 memory and there is a price difference -- go with what's cheapest.

From wikipeida:

Higher performance DDR2 DIMMs are compatible with lower performance DDR2 DIMMs
