The specs for the motherboard on the Asus website do not list 1066 Mhz memory as being supported, and there is none on the qualified memory list either. However in the manual it does seem to include/mention 1066 memory. Some other non-Asus Z77 motherboards do seem to list it as supported, although I couldn't find a post by anyone using such old/slow memory on any Z77 motherboard. Would there be any issue in using it?
I ask because my 1600 Mhz memory won't get here for another week, so I was wondering if it would be worth the trouble to borrow a friend's 1066 Mhz memory (DDR3) to get my first PC build up and running in the meantime.
