I recently bought a MB that calls for DDR2 667 RAM. What happens if I substitute DDR2 800? Does it work, and do I get the same performance?

The simplest answer is that it might work.  Some SDRAM is pickier
about the clock than others.  You wouldn't get any different
performance out of the two memories, so there is no particular reason
to go with the more expensive RAM, especially given the chance that it
might not work.

If you already have the ram, it won't hurt to try it.  Run a good
memory test, like building a kernel from source to make sure.
