Most benchmark programs like sisoft sandra can tell you that.

Then under mainboard info you can look up the memory speed.

You can also run the memory test and compare it with other systems.

Under the RAM tab, it should list the speed, or Frequency possibly right above the timings. You might be able to lower the timings, but it all depends on the RAM. If you want to get every last drop out of the system, try it, but it really depends on the RAM you have. It should say you're memory is running at 166MHz, but it's okay if it's running at 133. You can change it (in BIOS) to run at 166MHz---consult your mobo manual for this.
