I am finally upgrading my ancient P4 3.0GHZ Rambus PC because of the limitations of the 850 chipset. I just ordered an Intel Core 2 DUO E8400. I don't know too much about DDR RAM, but Im shooting for DDR2-667 RAM with a 4-4-4-12 latency. I want the ram clock speed (333mhz) to match the quad-pumped CPU's FSB of 333mhz (quad-pumped 333mhz).
My problem is I can't find good DDR2-667 5300 memoy. I can find DDR2-675 5400 memory, and plenty of DDR2-800 memory, but can it be underclocked to 667mhz to match the clock speed of my FSB?
