Heres what i have

Motherboard- ASUS M4A79 Deluxe AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard

Cpu AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Processor Model HDZ955FBGIBOX - Retail


I want 2 sticks of 2 gig ddr2 at 1066 each for now with the option of adding to more of the same later but my motherboard has this disclaimer *Due to AMD CPU limitation, DDR2 1066 is supported by AM2+ / AM3 CPU for one DIMM per channel only which i dont understand


I was looking at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231166 can somone just tell me if i could but 4 of those in my motherboard and have it work?

thanks that makes sense. Is it worth getting 2 at 1066 and 2 at 800 for a gaming pc? would it be better if i just had all 4 at 800 or just 2 at 1066?
