[QUOTE="DeathCorpse, post: 164350, member: 7886"] Yes you can get the ram to work with it. but you will have to oc the proc to run the ram at its full speed. and the 400mhz setting in the bios doest determine the ram speed but at what ratio it runs in. 400mhz in the bios means your ram will run in a 1:1 ratio with the cpu. which is what you want. you will have to up the fsb so that it will run the ram at its rated speed. this will do 2 things. 1. it will increase the cpu clock speed, and 2. it will increase your fsb. both good. just do some research on the proc you are going to buy on some of the tech sites to see if it can oc to what you need. as for the video card. first make sure you know what kind of graphics slot the mobo has ]ie is it agp 4x or 8x, or pci express. it would suck to buy a pic-x card only to find out that you have an agp slot.
