Right guys, just got one of these babies today. now, "recommended" memory acording to the OcUK site is 667, no mention of 800mhz stuff, but the FX62 is recommended 800mhz stuff. My question is, will i be able to run 800mhz ram @ 800mhz with this cpu?

probably be running on one of me M2N-E Deluxe's.

TIA

All AMD desktop cpu run on the 1Ghz hypertransport whatsit. So i don't see any reason why it wouldn't run the 800 memory at 800.
