I looked up the info for my motherboard, a SOYO SY-V6BE+ and it says
it only takes PC100 RAM (even the online manual says this). Does
this mean it won't run PC133 RAM, and can I mix 133 & 100 RAM on this
board?

Who has experience doing this on their boards?


The PC-133 memory just means it *could* run using a faster clock. You
do NOT have to run it at 133MHz. It will run at 100MHz so you can mix
PC-100 and PC-133 but it all will only run at 100MHz, the speed for the
PC-100 memory (unless you overclock and hope the PC-100 will operate at
the 133MHz clock rate).


Works fine for me.
