Yes, it will just run at the max speed that the motherboard supports. So if the motherboard specifies pc5300, you're going to be running the pc6400 memory which is faster than the 5300 at a lower speed. But it will work just as well as the pc5300. [thumbsuck] Might even run a bit cooler at the slower clockspeed due to higher quality etching for the pc6400 and or larger chip die sizes. [/thumbsuck]

Is it possible to put 4g of pc6400 ram in a machine with 2g of pc3200 ram?

Maybe. It depends on what the motherboard of the "machine" supports. Remember, too, that there are different kinds of memory, so if you just happen to have the memory sticks, they may be different kinds, and the motherboard will only support one of the kinds. (DDR, DDR2, etc.) Furthermore, if you are not using a sixty-four bit operating system, only about three gig will be available for use.
