PC3200 is equivalent to speed right? But where we gonna find the speed of the memory? Is it indicated in the memory?

In similar fashion PC2700 is PC333 or DDR 333 (333 MHz) and PC2100 is PC266 or DDR 266 (266MHz).

I got that from the link the you gave me. How come PC2700 is the same to PC333? It's obvious that they have different numbers.

    SHENGTON.........
    You missing the most important part .....

    PC3200 [highlight]is another way of writing [/highlight]PC400 or DDR 400.
    All three of those mean that the bus speed of the RAM module is 400MHz.

    And the same thing applies to PC2100 ....it's 266 MHz.

    Hope this clarifies thing for you.
