is it the same with the memory, do i get pc2700? or will pc2100 be
better?

so confused any help much appreciated

Hi Daz

Regards FSB speeds on A7V333

Cpu on version 1.x boards runs on a 266Mhz (2 x 133) bus officially.

BUT.......

If you have a version 2.x board these are capable of handling 333FSB cpu's
officially.

BUT........

many people including myself are running 333Mhz bus CPU's on version 1.x
boards.

Memory is independent of CPU FSB so ALL versions are capable of running at
333Mhz (2 x 166) bus, so go for PC2700.

Personally I am running 512MB of Samsung PC2700 DDR.

Which version do you own??????

Number is shown between the PCI slot furthest away from the CPU socket.

Good luck
