Yup, that ram will run a FSB of 200 (and more if you push it mabey), and you will a get preformance boost for the extra ram and one for going to Dual Channel.

I have BH-5 HyperX PC3000. It runs at ddr400 easy on both my P4 and my old Athlon setup. So here's to hoping that you won't be dissapointed.

I've also got hyperx pc3000, runs great at 210mhz 2-3-3-11 2.9v... could go higher... it passes memtest at 220mhz but board isn't stable in prime that high.
