So I just got this MotherBoard in the mail.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/...p?item=N82E16813188014"]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813188014[/URL]

On the box it says DDR2 800MHZ. Is 800mhz the fastest Ram it is going to recognize. I was going to put 4 sticks Crucial Ballistix Tracer 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory.

Am I wasting my money and time buy using a DDR2 1066 Ram?
 
The EVGA supported memory list is here The question you need to ask is, are you going to OC? If so, get the faster memory. If not, DDR2 800MHZ will work just fine.
