I'm looking at one of these CPUs to replace my 805D yet I've only got Corsair PC5400 RAM which runs at 675. I assume I'll have to change the RAM too to get it all working properly etc. PC8500 from what I can see?

Sorry been out of the hardware market for a long time and don't follow things like I used to.
 
I'll run at stock for the moment etc. Main reason I'll be looking at the chip is my 805D seems slow under Vista x64 and I do a lot of virtual server/PC stuff etc.

But that's good news ref the RAM and bad news ref the bank account :D

What sort of performance gain will I get over a 805D, staggering?
