Uh no. If your FSB (front side bus) is running at 66Mhz, you can have PC1million RAM and it will be the same as the PC66MHz. Its like saying a Ford Topaz driving 30 mph is slower than a Corvette driving at 30 mph. If you are buying RAM, spend the extra and get PC133... there isn't much difference in price and if anyone is selling PC66, its ancient. You will need PC100 or more if you are running a PIII or overclocking a Celeron (just built three Celeron 633Mhz systems that overclocked to 950Mhz no problem... didn't even change the core voltage). I think I can get my new one over 1GHz since I haven't tried over 950Mhz yet... might need some tweeking. I'll have to try it on my BP6 and have two 950MHz processors running. I miss that board....
blah, blah, blah ;)
: The PC-100 ram will make your computer run almost twice as fast.
