Hey guys. First time here. I tried searching the forums first but couldn't find anything related to my question. Here goes. When building a PC and choosing RAM, I always went with the rule of matching the FSB of the CPU to your RAM. For instance my Core 2 duo has 800mhz fsb, so i matched it with DDR2 800. Now if my CPU FSB was 1333, I would match it with DDR3 1333. Is this a correct assumption? I always went with this rule, but now am questioning it since after checking out Alienware, I noticed they are using the DDR2800 for nearly every Intel CPU they offer. So whats the verdict? Am I just wasting money on the faster ram? Or is this rule i've always followed correct? Thanks in advance!
