G A-8PE667 Newbie
I bought this board used, I have never tried Gigabyte before. I was a little
confused when the system booted up and said Ram 266, when I have DDR 333 on the board, I could not figure out if i could change it. A friend said that the CPU I was using, a 400mhz FSB, will not allow the ram to run at 333, thats whay the board posted it at 266. Can someone clarify this point? Also, I may upgrade to 800mhz bus, what board with LAN, ATA 133 and NIC would you readers reccomend. Thanks in advance! Terry |
