New Motherboard

jamesjames · 11-06-2007, 07:01 AM

I am looking to get a new motherboard because for some reason I have to run my memory at 667mhz on it, but my 2gbs of memory can run at 800mhz. I think my motherboard is just old and doesn't allow it to go that high.

Now, I might be completely wrong so bare with me. Can I only get a motherboard that has a 800fsb or can I get one with 1066 or higher? Again, I might be way of topic but let me know, thanks!

your RAM will auto down to the frequency which you MB can run.
