    Hey guys I'm using a Gygabyte GA-8I945GZME-RH motherboard on my computer. It says "Dual Channel DDR2 533" for Rams. I'm using a 512MB 533 mhz ram. Can I use a 667 MHZ on this computer? Can I use a 2GB Ram with my current 512MB ram?

    Thanks guys

    U can use 667MHz Rams.But it doesn't give u full performance.It will give u only 533MHz speed.B'coz Your highest speed is 533MHz.U can use 2GB Ram with ur 512MB Ram.But check,what is the highest memory u can plug.(I never used Gigabyte motherboards.So,ask 4m others too)

    and do not use 667 MHz ..when your board supporting only upto 512MHz ..It's not good for the mother board...
