According to crucial, it uses the following: * Module Size: 256MB * Package: 168-pin DIMM * Feature: SDRAM, PC100 * Configuration: 32Meg x 64 * DIMM Type: * Error Checking: Non-parity * Speed: 100 * SDRAM Timings: CL=2 * Specs: SDRAM, PC100CL=2UnbufferedNon-parity100MHz3.3V32Meg x 64 > 256 > PC133 CL2 memory from my sawtooth and my computer is running better than > it > ever has since I set it up.

I've seen many older machines that freaked over similar things, even when the testing programs say everything was fine. Memory density may play a part, memory timings are different between PC100 and 133 as well. PC133 should work in a PC100 board, but not always. Besides, dropping 133 in a 100 using board doesn't give any more performance at stock settings. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
