Power Center Pro ram type?

Hi: I have a Power Center Pro 180 that was upgraded to a G3. It takes 168 pin DIMMS, operating at 60 or 70 nano-seconds, 5.0 Volts ( I believe). Could I use a "128MB, 168 PIN, PC133, SDRAM DIMM" (i.e. today's faster ram) in my machine? Would it be 'backwards compatible'? If not, additional inf
