yes you need the same speed memory 
also, your memory now is DDR, the new sticks of memory you wanted to put in are DDR2, they'll physically fit in the slots, but they won't work

you can put the faster memory in as it will adjust itself to run at the lower speed. but you will need DDR and NOT DDR2
