Question about my MOBO

[Jermanfu]

I just ordered my new system from Newegg. After I placd my order I noticed a couple of things about my Motherboard. Maybe someone can clear this up for me.

Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

First, I noticed that the memory standard is 1066.

Here is the RAM I bought:

Newegg.com - Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail

With my memory being 800 RAM, is it still compatible with my board?

Second, my board says it has 8 channels on board audio. Does that mean it has built in audio? Or will I need to buy a soundcard?

Thanks in advance for any answers

That mobo/ram should work.

Yes, that mobo has a sound chip, no extra soundcard required.
