    ddr 800 or 1066 mhz??

    I am on the brink of buying a motherboard s775 for a conroe build. But I am a bit stuck, can this mobo http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=437657 support ddr2 at speed 1066 mhz or is 800 mhz the fastest it can support?
    I have a feeling that only the new nForce 680's can support ddr2 1066 mhz. Sorry for being a noob but I am a bit unsure on this one, and plus it would be great if I could have 1066 mhz RAM in that mobo but I dont think it can.

    It probably would support it but I don't think the 965 chipset officially supports 1066mhz memory so they can't list it. I don't have that mobo though so I can't be sure.

    Humm I can't find anything saying this mobo can support anything faster than 800 mhz. So it looks like I will get ddr2 800 mhz.

    That clears things up for me a bit as well, I was always confused by the whole FSB/qdr/ddr frequencies thing.
