Can i use push ddr2 pc5400 (667 bus) as my motherboard can detect max 533 bus?

i see that ddr2 667 is cheaper.

Plain and simple, yes. In general, whenever you install memory, so long as the pin configuration is matching, you can install the higher speed module (667 instead of 533). However, if you are going to use the 667 module near a 533, you must install the 533 module first. Think of the first DIMM slot as the leader. It sets the clock speed for the rest of the memory automatically setting it down to 533 if 667 is used.
If your motherboard supports DDR2, yes.
Yes...
Hmmmm.





Well that really all depends.



If your board is a DDR2 motherboard, that simply supports up to 533mhz, it should downclock to 533 speeds.



But... And this is a BIG BUT...



Your board is more likely to use the ORIGINAL DDR which maxed out at 533mhz.



I don't believe they cause a DDR2 motherboard that does not support over 533mhz.







You need to engineer sure your motherboard uses DDR2 before you turn any further.
no you can not due to the fact your fsb for the memory is ony 533 not 667
U can use DDR2 667 bus , if ur motherboard supports DDR2

but here will be decreased gig since ur mainboard will not be able to utilise the extra FSB of the RAM.
