Hi guys
Will this RAM work with this mobo?
RAM:

Should be fine. :) Both are DDR2.
This RAM is faster and roughly the same speed, though. Check out Hexus bargains for... well, bargains. :D
The Kingston RAM is PC 4200 whereas it says the board supports 5300 or 6400?
Confused!

Cheers for that, I have some 800Mhz PC6400 GeIL on order, however work IT department are lending me this PC 4200 533Mhz stuff until Overclockers pull their fingers out and deliver mine :(Quote:

I'd try it. :D Go straight into the BIOS and underclock to... thingy... ummm... 266MHz? If you can't set the RAM to 266MHz, then you had a wasted trip under your desk. :(
Edit: And I didn't mean that the above RAM was faster and roughly the same speed, I meant roughly the same price, of course! :D I think I may be a little bit ill today. Sorry!
No longer an issue, got some 5300 now :D

You cannot run DDR2 533 on a P35 chip.
Thankyou, I have some of the good stuff now :0)
Vista 64 arrives tomorrow, going to have to occupy myself with Ubuntu for the time being :)

That's bizarre, the P35 supports the 533MHz FSB. I wonder why it can't support 533MHz RAM? :confused:Quote:
