I already have sampron 145 CPU and gonna buy an Asus m5a78l m plus mobo with 8gb 1866mhz DDR3 ram.
So all i wanted to know is my s145 CPU works perfectly with that combo (m5a78l m usb3 + 8gb 1866mhz ram) or I've to do some tweaks with..?
 
Maybe, but are more than likely throwing money away on the 1866 DRAM, the Sempron CPUs are rated up to 1066, so 1333 is likely to work. 1866 (if you want to run at 1866, well may be a stretch. The 965 Phenom was the the lowest end AMD CPU that could semi reliably run 1600 sticks
 
Sorry i write wrong name of the mobo, the mobo im gonna buy is ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3...
Is it now possible?
And btw ill buy a new fx 4300 Qc cpu after some time, till that i have to use that sampron 145 CPU on that mobo.
 
Its corsair 1×8gb DDR3 1866mhz ram.
So do i have to manually setup memory clock speed to 1066mhz to run it(sampron 145) with that mobo or itll automatically adjust the clock speed?
