The board is capable of running both 33 and 400 with the 400 being the upper limit.

The AMD chips in the XP series (I think that is what they were called) came in both 166 and 200 speeds.

I had a board that topped out at 333 (166x2) so I could not run the faster 200 chips.

His board will run the faster buss speeds chips so therefore he can put in a faster chip and run the 400 memory.

Ah! 333 makes more sense for answering the third question.

BelArc reports the bus is 166. With DDR (Double Data Rate) memory that
makes 166 x 2 = 332 a.k.a 333. But I still don't know where the 400 comes
from.
