so i have this Kaveri board (GA-F2A88XM-D3H) and CPU (A8-7600) and i noticed in the spec sheet is says it'll do DDR3-1333 up to DDR3-2166 (and 2400 with OC), but what about the low end? is there any reason that DDR3-1066 won't work, or will it work but it's just so obscure that nobody bothers to list it?
thing is, i have some 1066 sticks, so i wonder if i can use them, or if Kaveri will explode.
i'm actually NOT going to use the built-in graphics anyways, cuz half way through assembling it i tore it all apart and changed my plans so it's going to get a GTX760 for graphics.
i know that mix-n-match RAM sticks is never guaranteed, so the question isn't about that. it's about the speed specs and if technically there is a lower limit to what a CPU can clock to.
