You can run with higher speed DDR2 but the benefit is negligible at stock because of the stock CPU FSB - it only matters if you are overclocking.

I thought if you had a 1333FSB and a 1333 processor, but only running 533 memory then you're not running everything at it's full speed. The memory is a bottle neck because it can't handle the traffic coming to it from the processor.
