RAM compatability.
I am running 2 512 sticks of RAM in my machine. In slot 1 is 512MB PC2700 at 166MHz speed and 2-3-3-7-0 timings. Slot 2 has 512MB of PC3200 at 200MHz speed and 3-3-3-8-0 timing. How is this affecting my performance. Machine runs fine as is, but curious on how to improve.

No way to improve with that motherboard, both sticks are running at 133 and there's no way to make them run faster.

The timings and speed I have posted is straight from System Information For Windows.

Could be a false read, or showing you the timings that the sticks are rated for, but not what they are actually running at. A check in the BIOS should confirm that they are running at 133Mhz.

I don't think a HP bios has that ability.
