| Yes. It will take UP to that speed, not just that speed. If you're an overclocker and want to run at a higher FSB without worrying about RAM hitting the wall, you might want to get the higher speed RAM, but if not, go for the 800.

| Ya, I'm not going to worry about OCing this computer. I'm only 18, and can't just dish out the money for new parts if i blow one :/. Thanks for the conformation. |

| Eh, you can't really "blow" parts OCing. The best analogy is to skydiving. People see it as a huge risk but if you know the basic skills (how to pull a damn cord!) it's less risky than a lot of other stuff. In fact, raising the FSB entails nearly zero risk - it's only when you start messing around with voltages that you risk doing damage, and that's relatively safe as well. I got a free .8ghz just by raising my FSB, taking about 30 minutes total, and giving me a processor that would cost way more had I bought it stock. The only active risk is that you don't boot into windows or it locks while playing a game - and in this case, all you have to do is back down your FSB about 10mhz and try again.

In either case, hope it works out for you. I see this G-Skill RAM in the deals section on the NewEgg newsletter quite a bit, and while I at first dismissed it as budget ram the specs and reviews look convincing. I'm gonna take a look at my newsletter and see if I can't find a promo code for some cash off, cause that's pretty common with this RAM. If I do, I'll edit this post. EDIT: Nope, there's some 1066 for $75 but no discount on that RAM. Still, it's pretty cheap - go hog wild :) My System: 日夏子

And that is still a good deal for the 1066, but I don't think you can beat 2GB for 45, and that G.Skill has lots of good reviews, so I'll take it :D. |
