Usually, different brands of ram makes no difference.  That said, in some
rare instances some brands of ram will not work together, but that is
extremely rare.

As far as the FSB on your ram, it is recommended that if you have a
CPU with a clock speed of 133 that the ram should also be 133 in order
to take full advantage of the ram speed.  Other wise you create a bottle
neck at the ram.
