So I've got 256MB RAM@266mhz, on an viaKT400 motherboard(suports fsb 400mhz)...
Now I'm going to buy myself another 256MB RAM, and I noticed that those @400mhz are for some reason cheaper than those @266mhz... My question is if I'll have one module @266mhz and one @400mhz, will my PC work correctly, what will happenn, or should just buy another module @266mhz even though it's more expensive?

I'm not sure, but I think that if you buy one, make sure it supports 266 mhz FSB. Compatibility problems _might_ occur, still.

Mixing different RAMs is almost always a bad idea :not_ok:

The thing if I buy let's say one DDR Module of 512@400mhz (the 256 I have now is @266mhz) I would have too raise the FSB of the whole motherboard to 400mhz, so that would mean overclocking the processor at least one guy explained me this way...
He told me that 400mhz memory would work on 266mhz(if I keep the old module that I have and add a new one), but I'm still not sure though...

So, selling that 256 @266 is out of the question?
