Is PC1066 backwards compatible?????

[Curley]

Does anyone know if PC1066 is backwards compatible?? I had a choice of buying the motherboard or memory and I chose memory until I can afford the 533 board. I would like to put the memory in my ASUS P4T-E which would make overclocking easier but I don't want to fry everything.

Thanks.

It is unless you buy the 32 bit RAM. If you get the 16 bit it is backwards compatible to the PC800.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
