Bump;
C'mon guys I need your help.
Sons computer is leaving for college Monday. I haven't another to use. Memory is all I need left to purchase. Today! Hopefully.
My ECS user guide says the following (below) have been tested and qualified for use with my C51GM-M motherboard...
So does Core 2 need high speed memory to shine? The answer is a resounding no! This is different from AMD AM2 where more expensive memory is needed to get the most out of the system.
Why is PC6400, which is also running asynchronous, faster then? Because the memory speed is now that much...

I hope that I am in the right section here. If not, please excuse my post. However, I believe this would be a very basic question and would more than likely end my first time attempt at building a computer if the answer would be a yes.
Would I need another stand off computer while in the...
Thanks...... Given the concensus, I guess I'll give it a shot.
Would a underpowerd or low wattage power supply cause any component damage? This is what really concerns me, being this is my first attempt at building a computer.
Thanks.......I was curios as I've read others with close or similar rigs were using a 450 watt power supply. I don't do a lot of gaming, but at times have multiple programs running. Obviously, when I purchased the above Sonata [then] things were much different--again, curios with what changes...
