I've got a friend who's motherboard died and who is looking to buy a new mobo. He's currently looking at the ASUS M3A78-EM, which is a DDR 1066 motherboard. His current RAM is two 1GB sticks of Kingston DDR2 533.

Is he likely to have any issue using this RAM in this motherboard?

Thanks! I suspected as much, but wanted to make sure I wasn't just crazy.
