I plan to build a mid range AMD based rig to replace my old POS in sig.
The plan is to go Barton 2500+ 333FSB Retail w/ nForce2 MB. I choose Kingston PC3200 value ram but comments in GH indicate that might not have been a good choice.
The reason for the the PC3200 RAM with the 333FSB Barton was that I might want to try and OC after a while. I got the retail Barton to get warranty and a HS+Fan to start off with.
Is it bad to run PC3200 @ PC2700 speeds and will the memory wotk if I up the FSB closer to 400?
