PC2-5300 Runs at (667 MHz) right?
Well I have PC2-5300 (2 x 1gb, 2 x 512mb total of 3gbs dual channel if that makes a dif) but CPU-Z says it is running at 333MHz...??

All the RAM is the same.

333.3 x2 =666.6, rounded up to 667.

That's the speed.. at "Double Data Rate"..(DDR)  ;)

so then does DDR3 at 700MHz translate into 2100MHz?

No... it's still DDR (Double Data Rate)

Another question (because I don't want to start another thread); would upgrading my RAM to PC2-6400 (2 x 2Gbs 80MHz) help anything? Or is there not much of a significant dif? Say in FSX for example?
