i was looking at the Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 and this RAM
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145034

the RAM has latency 4-4-4-12

my question is, can the mobo support the RAM? i asked this because in newegg, they put a notice as follows copied directly from newegg

so if i put this RAM in that mobo, will it work? i have seen some people recommend the two together but im a bit worried...

thanks for the help

Check Gigabyte's website. I don't see why it wouldn't work, but when I get RAM for a system, I try to get what's listed as their guaranteed compatibility RAM listed on their site.

which revision should i choose in the gigabyte website?

EDIT:
i chose rev 1.0 and this is the compatibility list
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/FileList/...a-965p-ds3.pdf
would this be the list you are talking about? it didn't the 2gb there but i guess its the same as the 1gb

i think those ram are 1GB CORSAIR CM2X1024-6400C4 on the list, should work.

It appearant a standard clause, I see this clause at quite a few discription.
If you have any doubt, I suggest you go to Gigabyte website and contact them to see if you could find out the answer

The disclaimer on newegg was because this board, and every other 965 board, had trouble with high performance DDR2 with the early BIOSes. It should be OK now and I think corsair was one of the brands that was OK anyway.
