cause the RAM i bought from newegg.com is backordered and i was curious if i could just get some like DDR2-667 instead... this is the moboits going in...
 
You can use DDR2-667, but you wont be able to get to DDR2-800 speeds unless you raise the voltage and timings.
 
thanks... i'm not that worried about the speed... it's for my sister...

i just was wondering cause the mobo's RAM standard is DDR2-800 and i figured it was backwards compatible but i wanted to make sure...

anyways, thanks OMEGA...
