The speed alone has nothing to do with it. They could
even been the same chips on both 66 and 100 Mhz
modules. When a batch of chips is made, the maker
tests them and sorts by speed for different
applications, some might be 66, some 100, and some 133
from the same batch. Or they might all test good for
133 but some are sold for 66 because that's what the
market wants. There are a lot of other considerations
besides speed. Memory chips have lots of other
parameters that need to be considered. Find the part
number on one of the memory chips and look up the
specs on the IC maker's web site and you will see what
I mean. You should really stop spreading this
nonsense and look for significant differences in the
memory modules besides speed.
