The information on the MSI website Here, says that using 4 double sided dimms would result in ddr 333 max operating speed. However, the motherboard roundup Here on Anandtech is saying that
the it had no problems with 4x 512mb dimms at ddr 400.

I want to know if i can use 4x 512mb PC3200 Crucial Ballistix dimms and will it default to 400mhz or would i have to overclock? Anyone got this mobo with 4x 512mb sticks of memory?

im not all up on the techical terms but i finally got my 4 x 512 sticks to work.

i had to increase the voltage to 2.8. when it boots up. it says ddr 400 dual channel 128bit, memory clock is set at 200 mhz.
