I'm thinking of getting some 1GB Ram Module of the newest 667Mhz Memory. |

On one Intel booth, the demo showed how, at full speed, a 1 GB DDR2-667 |
| 8 |
SO DIMM in a "thin and light" notebook reached an awfully hot 85 degrees |
| 9 |
Celsius case temperature |
| 10 |
... |
| 11 |
...certain temperature limit is breached, throttles the DIMM speed down, |
| 12 |
say 50 per cent for instance in this case - from 667 MH to 333 MHz |
| 13 |
effective throughput. |

| 16 |
if this is the case, why the heck would I want to get a 1GB 667 Memory |
| 17 |
Module which is like USD25 pricier than a 533 Mhz 1GB module? (This is |
| 18 |
for a new Thinkpad X60, BTW) |
