Cas 2 - Cas 3 ram, can you even tell?
Crucial is selling 256mb pc133 cas 3 ram for 59. 35 and well I think i'm going to finally make the jump from 128mb pc100 lol, But I don't wanna have how you say ram thats not up to par so will I even be able to tell the difference between cas 2 and cas 3 latency? -Amnesiac.

Makes a lot of difference in moving up from CL3 to CL2. Use SiSoft Sandra to benchmark results, before and after changing to CL2 - you will see substantial improvement in CL2.

But can you actually "feel" the difference? I can't, but I can see the difference in the Sandra benchmark. Is it faster in real life or only in Sandra Benchmark?

It's faster in benchmarks alright, but not in real life. If you've already got enough ram, you'll do fine, since Win2k runs better with more ram than the speed of ram, although faster can't hurt.
