hmm... the reason seems to be that the SPD timings might be different...
but that's really a BIOS issue more than anything else... also SDRAM
produced as 66/100 is generally 5V as opposed to 100/133 @ 3.3V. Learn
something new every day.

Watch out for latency timing too: CL3, CL2.5 or CL2.0, they don't mix in
the same system and require BIOS adjustments if even supported. RTFM to be
sure.
