CPU FSB

[cybernalin]

i bought a intel E5700 processor and it's FSB is 800 so now i need to buy new mother board with DDR3 mother board with 1333 ram so the problem is my cpu is 800 and if i bought 1333 ram can i get that performance without a problem????
i'm currently using DDR2 800mhz ram if it's help

no, you cant stick ddr3 ram in a ddr2 mobo, either way around... if your buying a mobo with ddr3 support, make sure the socket # matches the one here http://ark.intel.com/products/42801/Intel-Pentium-Processor-E5700-(2M-Cache-3_00-GHz-800-MHz-FSB)

... now that i look, its LGA775

Thanks for your answer nna2

I'M going to buy this motherboard and yes it's LGA 775 motherboard http://www.foxconnchannel.com/product/Motherboards/detail_overview.aspx?ID=en-us0000483

i'm asking you is there any performance problem with FSB because ram is 1333 and processor is 800

their will be no problem, as they will synchronize them self in a specific ratio automaticaly

thanks for the answer and is that mean If my Processor FSB is 800mhz and the memory speed work as the same i mean
CPU FSB 800Mhz = Ram SPEED 800MHZ

no, it will be at 1333MHz if it supports it.... and it doesish, in overclock mode
