I just returned the Athlon 5200+ due to motherboard problems and incompatiblity, I guess you can call it that :lol: . Well before I purchase another CPU, I plan to run the original Sepron for a little while. I bought some Crucial Rendition PC-6400 800MHZ 1GB RAM for the Athlon 5200+, but now I am afraid it might not work with the original Sepron.

In the NCIX website, it shows the Sepron AM2 architechure and states that it has a memory controller for 667MHZ, 533MHZ, 400MHZ, DDR2 RAM. Not the 800MHZ Ram, therefore I am asking this question.

CPU (Original CPU)
AMD Sepron Manila 3400+ 1.8Ghz 90nm Socket AM2 L1 Cache = 128KB, L2 = 256KB

Thank you, so it'll clock to the DDR2 667 speed? Also can you run any RAM in dual channel? My motherboard supports it. And if I get the exact same ram will it work?
