I have an intel DG965ot with Core 2 Duo E6700 Running on it with 3 GB ram .

I tried upgrading my ram to 4 GB but i couldn't , ram was detected but pc was working soo slow.

I tried many combinations like :

-2x 1GB PC2-5300 (333 MHz) on slots of same color with 1x 2GB PC2-6400 (400 MHz) on one of the remaining slots .

-2x 1GB PC2-5300 (333 MHz) on slots of same color with 2x 1GB PC2-6400 (400 MHz) on other same color slots .

And many others that i dont remember right now .

Please suggest me any way that i can upgrade it to 4GB , my mobo supports upto 8GB but i cant understand why my pc works soo slow on 4GB

Now my pc runs on following configuration

You need to read what intel has to say here:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/boards-and-kits/desktop-boards/000007335.html
https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA19P3VM5452

Thats the highest speed your intel motherboard can handle as specified by intel technicians.
If you want to use the lga 775 boards atleast get a better and more stable motherboard.
