All DDR2 RAM is compatable with all DDR2 RAM motherboards. If your board can't 800MHz RAM it will be clocked down to the 667MHz speed. Check with Crucial.com or your computers manual to see if you should spend the extra cash on 800MHz DDR2 ram. Most of the time it's not really any more expensive then the lower speed ram.
