Well 1Gb at 400 is faster than 512mb at 330.

Sorry but your post doesn't make great sense :p

Well if that's the case go for more memory.

Being honest your best bet would be to get another 1Gb at 400mhz.

I wouldn't recommend (or advocate) putting different speeds of ram on a motherboard.

I would recommend however, as Slipend has said, just purchasing another gig of 400mhz ram.
