Corsair memory... speeds DDR2-667 and DDR2-800

post #1 of 6

Can Area-51m 7700 handle these memory speeds... DDR2-667 and DDR2-800?

Any guess if Alienware will offer Corsair memory upgrades w/ 7700?

Corsair's New XMS XPERT Memory now features a 10 character LED display that delivers temperature, speed and voltage... or it can display your own customized message.

Is that Corsair's strip compatible with 7700?

It says "DDR2 SODIMM PC2-4200"... but Alienware uses PC4300 DDR2 SDRAM memory type.

Can "PC2-4200" be used w/ Intel 915P chipset?

You'll see very little if any real performance difference by upgrading your memory, for a big investment...
