Hi guys,
Im building a system with a p4c800 mb and a pentium 2.6ghz w/ a 800mhz fsb and im intending to overclock the processor to 3.06Ghz. My question(s) are:
1. I am planning on ordering 2 512 kingston pc 3500 non parity non ECC ram sticks will they work on this motherboard?
2. Does the Intel Pentium 4 2.6(800fsb) have hyper threading technology?

thanks
matt

The next question I have is, I am having a delema on what video card to put into this beast, a radeon 9800 pro 256 or a Nvidia Geforce fx 58 or 900. Also I've decided on 2 512 sticks of Kingston Hyper X pc 3500 ram for this mboard what you think?

That's fine for the RAM.

I won't answer in regards to the video card. I would choose the 5900 over the 5800, although the 5900 is not available yet (very soon though). As for ATi or nVidia card, I suggest you look at the benchmarks on the main site and make your own conclusions.
