| Both above posters are wrong. The way to tell is if your motherboard supports a 1333 speed FSB.

| Weather you mobo supports 1333 FSB or not doesn't matter. is he even guna get RAM that goes at the speed? its just an option, not a need. |

| then how do you explain all the people with my MOBO that have the rev. 2.2 that don't support that FSB speed and they still have core 2 duos that have that FSB? they may not use that speed but either way they can use that kind of CPU. |

| You're right - it'll run. Still, it'd be a waste to pay for a 45nm CPU and then only use it at a 1066 FSB speed..

| not really. you'd still see a huge performance upgrade if your like me and have an E6300 OC 3Ghz. surprisingly, running things like RAM at 800MHz with a max FSB like that doesn't reduce performance much. |
