The DDR3 1800 and DDR1600 speeds are speeds you can achieve if you overclock your RAM, not necessarily the speed at which the RAM comes from the factory. The normal operating speeds of the RAM will be 1333 Mhz, 1033 Mhz or 800 Mhz. If you buy overclockable RAM, then they are more stable at higher speeds. Basically, they're telling you that the motherboard is equipped to overclock your RAM. Whether or not you get overclockable RAM is up to you. Quote

kbreudi Posted October 31, 2007 Report Posted October 31, 2007 alright thanks for you help... would you say the board is worth the money? ASUS FTMFW!! Best boards you can buy especialy when teamed up with a intel chip set. As for the RAM you can go ahaead and put DDR3 1800 in there all day and OC it, that northbridge can handle it all day as long as you ceap it cool.
