Hey guys,
I'm upgrading a pretty old computer in the way that I'm throwing out everything but the case and harddrives. I am going for this processor:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819115015
and Newegg says that this RAM is compatible:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16820231098
It says the processor has a 1066 mhz FSB, but the ram says "DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)" for the speed.
But to me, being a guy used to things like PC133 and DDR266,
How do I compare processor FSB's to RAM speeds to make sure I'm not dicking myself.
Oh and I don't plan to OC. At all. I read a thread or two just now and it seems to say that PC2 6400 is above-normal speed, but this stuff is also cheap, so I wasn't planning on any future OC-ability.
Thanks guys
