I'm building up a duron system with the ECS K7S5A motherboard. I purchased 256 megs of PC2700 DDR333 Kingmax RAM and later noticed on the ECS website that the K7S5A supports DDR200 and DDR266. I have done some reading and searching and relise that my DDR333 ram should just run at a lower clock speed than it is capable of. However I am still wondering if their is the possibilty of problems because the motherboard manufacturer states that the supported (in relation to fsb) ram clock speed is lower than the type of RAM I'm shoven in. I know most motherboards are in a similiar boat and DDR333 can still be made use of for overclocking but I would still like to know what you think because it could help me rule out a small possibilty with a problem I had.

They say machines don't make mistakes, the user does. Didn't humans create that machine?
