Hey guys , im about to put a rig together from parts that i have kicking around.
cpu= Q6600
ram= 2x1 gb pc2 5300 and 2 x 512mb pc2 6400 (3 gigs total)
i know since some of the ram is 533 mhz it will pull the faster 667 mhz ram down to 533, the q6600 has a 266 mhz x9 bus speed correct?
so the bus speed of the cpu will be 266 and the bus speed of the ram will be 533? making it a 1:2 ratio?
im sorry if im making no sense, this is just what ive kinda gather from looking around but i havent found a clear explanation of how this works, plz chime in and let me know.
