I plan to purchase an Intel Core 2 Duo e6750 with the 1333 FSB. Not quite sure on the motherboard but it will be 1333/1066 FSB compatible. I was also looking at the Crucial Ballistix Tracer 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model BL2KIT12864AL1065. I don't plan to overclock until after a few months or so if I even choose to, and not by much. Counter-strike source is the only real FPS game I play with the occasional rpg. Main goal is to build an efficient overall pc to last for years to come with due upgrades when necessary.
1.) What Motherboard would work best with the CPU and memory up top?
2.) Will the 1066 ram run smoothly with the 1333 FSB of the processor and motherboard? compatibility wise? if not, does it cause for a huge diff. in performance or any significant slower response times than if i used ddr2-800?
3.) If i buy the intel core 2 duo e6600 with 1066 FSB. will that allow for more efficiency with the 1066 memory?
p.s. I'm really a "noob" you can say and have done research but failed to really grasp the meanings of what i've read so far. Figure I'd just let people tell me what I should do. I appreciate any and all advice.
