Mobo manufacturer says PC1600/PC2100, what about higher?

Hi all,

I recently bought myself a MSI K7T266 Pro2.
I also bought 2 sticks of Corsair PC2400 256MB DDR-RAM.
MSI says on it's site something about PC1600/PC2100 will work with the mobo. Does this mean PC2400 is likely to give problems?

The last mobo I had was an Intel 815. And for as far as I know it doesn't make any difference what speed you use on an Intel system.
Is this also true for a AMD system?

Pc2400 will work just fine its just guaranteed by the manufacture to hit 150fsb. Any 184pin DDR ram will work just fine...enjoy.

All PC2400 is, is overclockable PC2100. Should work just fine.
