You'd have 1.5Gb of memory running at 333 and not in dual memory mode.

You're better off just using the 1Gb of PC3200.

It certainly is, isn't it?

By the same token, two Ford Focuses are more cars than one Ferrari.

Which would you prefer? ;)

Because, matey, by adding a stick or two of PC2700 alongside some PC3200 RAM, you are dragging all that memory down to running at 333.

PC3200 on it's own runs at 400.

And three sticks means you lose dual memory config advantage.

There is more to this thing than quantity.
