It doesn't matter. Use whatever combo gives you the highest clock speed. You might find that you can go a bit higher if you removed the Ballistix and just went with the G.Skill.

if your rig will run a 533mhz FSB (stable) x7 then do that, the FSB is the most important frequency in regards to your OC.

a 500+ FSB will heat up your NB significantly though..... but it will bench the fastest out of your listed settings. IMO
