AM2 only supports up to 800Mhz as far as i know
correct, AMD only officially support DDR2 800 but then again that's also the fastest DDR2 that Intel officially support as well.
Thats because thats the fastest RAM that officially exists :)
again correct - give that chimp a coconut :P
Thanks, I accept your coconut.
... i dont get it, why is the faster ram not official?Quote:

Also, testing new speeds, making a new chip that supports it, along with the chipsets is major $$$.Quote:

Oh, and memory bandwidth isnt a major problem, even at these 'lower' speeds.
