PC-100 SDRAm with 66FSB Motherboard

[estetech]

I want to add RAM to my PII-300MHz Compaq computer.
It uses PC-66 SDRAM, but would PC-100 RAM work with it.

Some one is selling me 2x32MB SDRAM very cheap, i just want to know if it WORKS.

THANKS

All SDR SDRAM should work. So if you put PC66, PC100, PC133, PC150, etc. in there it will work. SRDAM is backwards compatible. However the memory will still run at the system clock speeds. So if your system clock is 66MHz, the memory will run at 66MHz; Reguardless of what the memory can handle. The limiting factor is the core clock speed of your system but they all should work. I have 256MB of PC133 in my Slot 1 Celeron 333 440LX but the memory speed is 66MHz. It has been running like that for about 2 years now.
