You should get the PC3200 even though you won't be running at that speed. Running the memory slower than it's rater for should allow you run with really tight latency timings (i.e. if it's rated for CAS2.5 at PC3200 then you should be able to run CAS2 at PC2100 speeds).

Even if the board does let you run it at PC3200 speeds having extra memory bandwidth available is never a bad thing. :)
