Hey, first post, heh.
I need to know if a motherboard that says it supports DDR2 1066(but does not specify DDR2 800) will also support DDR2 800. I figured it was like PCIe 2.0 also working with PCIe x16, but I'm not actually sure.
I'm trying to upgrade my PC with a new motherboard and graphics card, but I have DDR2 800 RAM and the requirements for my graphics card are kind of conflicting with this. This is pretty much what I need.
AMD board
Socket Am2
Nvidia nForce chipset
At least 2 PCIe 2.0 x16(doesn't matter what else it has)
Support DDR2 800 RAM
SLI Support
$170 or less
I have found a couple of boards, but they seem cheaply made and I don't really trust them. I am curious about this because it would give me a lot more options. I never actually thought about the above problem until I wanted to upgrade. I can always buy RAM later, but I probably wont be able to for maybe 2 months, or longer.
