Hey, I have an Asus Maximus Formula SE motherboard. The board support a FSB of 1066. I was wondering, if i put in OCZ Reaper OCZ2RPR800C44GK 4GB DDR2 2X2GB PC2-6400 DDR2-800 CL 4-4-4-15 Memory Kit will it bottleneck my system? (because fsb is 1066 and ram is 800) ... another question is... in case it does make a noticable difference in speeds, can i (and how) overclock the memory to 1066? Is it possible?

My CPU is q6600, but i'm upgrading to the 45nm's when they arrive.

Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

and your motherboard wont run the new 45 nm processors because they are running at 1333Mhz fsb and your motherboard only supports 1066mhz
