Memory support question

I have a 2006 model mac pro. Its 2.66 proc model.
Will this RAM modules be backward compatible with my Mac Pro?

I know that my Mac Pro has PC2 5300 Modules but I came across a good deal on PC2 6400 modules.

Compatibility
Compatibility For Apple Mac Pro System
Capacity 4GB (2 x 2GB)
Speed DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)

You can get 4GB (2x2GB) PC2 5300 from OWC www.macsales.com for $130.

All current Mac Pros should support both speeds compatible FB-DIMMs though.
