I just recently purchased a GIGABYTE GA-G31M-S2L motherboard from newegg.com along with Corsair TWIN2X4096-8500C5D.

The board has two DDR2 800 slots can I use the DDR2 1066 with this board and just run it at a lower frequency.

Thanks hommie. I just realized they have a configurator on their page. It's been quite a while since I've built a machine I didn't realize most vendors have a configurator now.

TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF DDR2-1066 (Dominator-8500C5*4GB*EPP) 4GB Kit (2 x 2GB) 2.1v 5-5-5-15-2T

Thanks.
