>> As far as price, it doesn't matter wether you buy PC3200 or PC2700 non-ECC >> memory. It's the same price.
Be aware that the PC2700 can be faster than the PC3200. If you're running at PC2700 speed and the PC2700 is CL2.5 while the PC3200 is CL3, there will be a performance hit with the PC3200. Also, the speed of the other modules will effect maximum memory speed. I haven't played around with three module configurations but making sure the two 512MB modules are interleaved may help a bit, depending on the sophistication of the chipset, the BIOS, phase of the moon, etc. Burn a boot disk with Memtest86+ and play musical DIMMs to see what works best. http://www.memtest.org/ or many Linux install disks offer it as a boot option.
