Memory question?

[mrzeeedler]

Okay so the mobos only say they support up to pc3200. So how is everything past that compatible. I was looking at the ddr2 with 550mhz.

It depends on the ram. Most ram these days is backward compatible. Im not too clued up on this ddr2 stuff though. Maybe email the ram manufacturer?

I think you need a mobo with ddr2 support, and ddr2 comes in pc2-3200 or pc2-4200.

Just afraid that the machine will crash cosz using not supported Rams.

Trust me when I say unless the motherboard supports DDR2 you will not be able to use it. DDR2 memory is 240pin and DDR is 184pin. The two are not compatible. Non-standard memory is anything over PC3200, this is a JEDEC standard unless it is DDR2 then PC4000 is the standard right now.
