My motherboard ASRock Motherboard - Product - 4COREDUAL-SATA2 - Overview I want to get this ram 2GB 800 Corsair Dual Channel 2*1 GB DDR PC 6400 CL4 RAM - eBay DDR2, Memory, RAM, Components, Upgrades, Computers. (end time 16-Mar-08 18:09:32 AEDST) Would it just downclock it if I used it, and work fine? I want it to help overclock my cpu.
Maybe. They may default to DD2-800 speeds, but you can manually set the RAM speed in BIOS if it does that.
Ok, but will it definetly boot up with it? My bios says my max cpu bus is 375mhz, so in theory that's 750mhz it could run at if I changed the settings Don't see why it'w 375mhz (1500mhz) if it says it can only take 266mhz (1066) fsb
Yeah, it should boot up no problem. The motherboard will just run with whatever the SPD settings are from the RAM sticks by default.
