Whichever one matches the FSB of the CPU you intend to use. Running the
memory asynchronously with the CPU FSB frequently leads to all sorts of
problems, and rarely, if ever, gives any performance improvement.
Obviosuly if you plan to overclock the FSB of the CPU, then plan for
similarly faster memory.

I assume you are aware that PC2700 =166Mhz FSB, PC3200 = 200 Mhz FSB
(or 333, 400 if you believe the marketing types).
