P4S8X - Upgrading (RAM?)

[PokeSmot]

I have the Asus P4S8X on backorder, and wanted to get the rest of my system components. Right now I have a SCSI DVD (Pioneer 304S)
IDE Burner (Lite-on 32x)
Geforce 3 TI200
Adaptec SCSI card (2930C)
WinTV-D
debating on Audigy Platinum or Hercules Game Theater XP

I'm getting a 380W True Power antec ps and a 2.4ghz (533mhz ver) P4.

My question is - > Has anyone tried DDR 400 with the P4S8x (if anyone has one)? The last I know the p4s8x was supposed to support 400 but on the pics from ocworkbench, it says it supports 333. Is it worth getting DDR400 (i know its faster)?

I'm looking at getting the same board and was also wondering if I should get PC3200 (DDR400) instead of PC2700 (DDR333). I was thinking I could buy the 400 and if the board doesn't like it then I could run it at 333. Does anyone know if I can do this?


BTW, where did you order your P4S8X from?


Thanks,
