Copied for MUSHKIN'S Website :
Intel D875PBZ: Intel i875 Canterwood chipset

We have qualified the Intel D875PBZ as fully compatible with the Mushkin PC3200 and PC3500 DDR DIMMs. With the current line of board, Intel allows access to the BIOS settings to manually specify the DDR frequency and latencies. Even though it is available as an option, 2:2:2 latency settings will not work in DDR400 mode, at least not with any DIMMs we have seen so far (including competitor products). CAS-2 (3:3), however works flawlessly. Intel does not have a ClearCMOS jumper on the board, however, setting the "Config" jumper (see below) to 2-3 will override the BIOS setting and boot into safe mode for configuration of the CMOS settings. By default, the board will run at losened latency settings but tighter timings can be selected in the BIOS.


My question is ......... If I run Mushkin HP pc2700 will it have a problem with running at top settings or is this problem "ONLY" related when running at 222 with DDR 400 ?

Only with DDR400..... PAT is disabled if you run the PC2700 ram. You can run 2226 settings with ddr400 but you need to increase the voltage to 2.7v
