[QUOTE="newmacuser07, post: 63661"] PC2700=166mhz PC3200=200mhz ... yea PC3200 is techincly faster but ONLY IF your pc supports a 200mhz FSB if not than the ram will clock itself according to your CPUs FSB speed. In the case with your ibook, its FSB is 133mhz (PC2100) so the PC2700 ram will clock itself down to 133mhz and it should work with no problems at all. Yes my mhz speeds are correct they are just not shown in DDR (double data rate) buying off of ebay is fine..we just bought two cars off of ebay in two weeks with no problems [/QUOTE]
