Hi all,
I just purchased a Gigabyte MoBo (GA-M68M-S2 rev. 1.0) and CPU (AMD Athlon II, X2 245, socket AM3) combo.
I'm trying to find out whether Kingston HyperX memory will work. Here's my confusion: In the manual it says DDR2 1066 support; but it says the voltage is 1.8 volts. However, the Kingston RAM is 2.2 volts.
Can I use the Kingston (KHX8500D2K2/2G)(2-1GB sticks) RAM and get 1066 out of it?
Price is important — not because I'm cheap — but because I don't have any, and this RAM fit's my budget.
The question is: Even though this memory fits my budget, will it fit my MoBo and give me 1066 performance?
