DDR2 1000 with 1066 board ok? Talal Itani 06-16-08

Hello,

I am finally putting together my 'dream pc'. I bought some DDR2 1000 memory
(not 1066). The motherboard I will be receiving in a few days is advertised
for DDR2 800 and DDR2 1066. Is that a problem? (I bought DDR2 1000 memory
because it was on sale.)

Thanks,
T.I.

No it is not a problem, though you may have some fiddling to
do if you want to get it running at the odd speed instead of
settling for whatever ratios the motherboard allows per the
FSB speed of the CPU you chose.
