PC3500 mem with A7N8X Deluxe?

[zahoor99]

This is probably a NO as i have done some searching but havn't found an answer yet, but is it possible to stick PC3500 mem which has 184pins into an A7N8X Deluxe mobo (PCBv2.0)?
I know the box says capable of supporting PC3200, but i'm thinking if the memory sticks are the same size and will fit in the slot will the mobo recognise them as it is only 33Mhz faster?

Thanks in advance

Yeh itll be fine They will underclock to run at PC3200 speeds and also give you a little extra overclocking headroom.

Cool dude, that's good news!

btw, have got an AthlonXP 2500+ in there, won't cause any problems will it? Just remembered if u might be thinking i am using an Athlon64 for some strnage reason.
