Depak, although your Simtronics 256 DDR is @ 333MHz your hynix 128 DDR is @ 266MHZ so when you use them together your PC will run at the slowest of the 2 (in other words it will run @ 266MHZ) but if you REMOVE the Hynex 128mb ram and run the PC with ONLY the Simtronics 256 DDR is @ 333MHz you will see that it is running at 333MHZ.
But if you also want the Hynix 128mb in your PC (along with the Simtronics 256 DDR )than you will have to make do with 266MHZ. So the answer to your question is even if your vendor gives you a Hynix 256MB @ 333MHZ you will still face the same problem.
So if you want to be able to run at 333MHZ than BOTH the sticks have to be of the SAME i.e. 333MHZ if not than your PC will run at the slowest of the 2 sticks.
thnx caleb but i run my simtronics ram alone also still it is showing 266MHZ though it is labelled as 256DDR @333MHz
