I just bought this card to put in a folding rig, and currently have an old Q6600 + socket 775 motherboard laying around that I was planning to use. I believe the motherboard FSB speed is 1066mhz, and the max ram speed is 800mhz. I'm just wondering if this will negatively impact folding performance in a significant way?
Will the card put out the same amount of work regardless of the other hardware in the PC? Or will a system with slower mobo/RAM not be able to keep up with a blazing fast DDR5 card? If necessary, I will grab a budget i3 mobo/CPU combo, but would rather not waste the money if it won't make a difference.
