ram

[Destroyer^]

ok my mobo uses 400 mhz ram (pc3200) but ive never seen a mobo tht says it can use pc4000 or higher ram, so i was wondering if it runs at 400 mhz but is in someway faster or something like tht =) just been wondering about it for ages

Most of the high end stuff is made purely for overclockers. My RAM is PC4200 iirc, or somthing stupidly high, but you wont see a board supporting it for a very long time, if ever. Its not even an offical standard !
