i dont no much about memory but is my ddr2 memory runnin slow
GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC5300 667MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit

Yes it is, my RAM is PC3200 (much slower than yours but nothing the cas latency can't catch up on) and mine runs at about 35MHz faster than yours, I don't know why this is but it is definitely running slow.

ya its deffinately slower than it should be, go into the bios and see if u can change it

[r_moore04]

do u think if i change the memory from GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC5300 667MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit to Corsair 1GB DDR2 XMS2-5400 TwinX (2x512MB) you think it will be the normal speed?

theres no need to waste money, in the bios try looking for the speed of the ram and changing it or try raising the fsb
