Hi,

I have a P-4 with HT and an MSI 865PE Neo2 that supports 800Mhz FSB.
I have two Nanya 256Mb sticks that are PC3200 with cas 3-3-3-8 with the
FSB at 800Mhz according to CPU-Z and the BIOS.

I can’t get the Nanya RAM anymore and I am wondering if I can add the
following: http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/info_5233.html

Crucial PC3200 DIMM 256mb
Crucial PC3200 CAS3 RAM, for use in DDR Based systems at up to 200Mhz FSB.

Whether this will be compatible (with 3-3-3-8) timing and also allow me
to keep my 800Mhz front side bus?

Also I have heard that MSI motherboards can have problems with all four
DIMM slots filled - without overclocking should the configuration I have
be fine? Currently the two Nanya sticks are in slots 1 and 3 (green and
purple)
