to get 4.0ghz you'll need a fsb of 445, which means 890 memory, you have two options, either get 800 and overclock, or get something like 1066 and downclock, now as you may know 1066 is just 800 that's be OCed but at least you're for sure garanteed that it'll work and also the prices are becoming closer to one another so depending on sales you can get 1066 for the price of 800 (though the only difference would be the garantee that it'll work.

Theoricaly speaking yes if you loosen the timing you should optain 890 easily though there is always the chance you get a lemon, it all depends on how you value your time, you can spend 10-15$ extra buying the 1000 or send 10-15 mins extra tuning the 800, I personally don't know how easy/hard it is
