Yes in a technical sense.
You might notice a slight improvement in use.
You would probably get more for your money changing to a different motherboard or cpu thou.

As Placid mentioned you will notice a difference. As SDR, get good Crucial PC133 CL2, and you'll be fine. The price isn't much of a difference from any other generic CL3..

you should notice a signifigant increase in fps in your games with cas2 compared to cas 3, back when I had a p3 system with some micron pc133 cas2. at cas 3 I would get a fps average in q3 of 71fps but when I ran at cas2 I got 84fps average, was quite the boost to me
