Well I don't know if thats good ram , it has high fsb but slow timings.

well, since they say that timings are always better then mhz, you should be better of, but he doesn't seem to agree

There is a wider margin in FSB due to divider;

Example:
Using PC3200
FSB 260 1:1 Ratio 3-4-4-8
FSB 220 5:4 Ratio 2-2-2-5

The difference of 40 mhz extended by 4X means 160 mhz increase. The increase well exceeded the tight timing benefit.
