January 29, 200719 yr So I finally got this new system and something doesn't seem right. Please help? This is the memory I have running at 800MHZ : http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/memo..._2_dual_channeland this is the Motherboard they supplied me with: http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?l1=3&l2...311&modelmenu=1 Which doesn't seem to support that speed of Memory. It appears I need to get the right Motherboard to support the 800mhz ram I have.Thanks,Ken Ken

Don't know what to tell you. It looks like it's the chipset that doesn't support it. Yours is a nforce 570SLI, what you need though for this memory would be one with a nforce 590SLI.
