Hi all!
I have a wonderful if slightly old ECS K7S5A motherboard with 382 MB SDR (Hey! You! STOP LAUGHING!) Now an opportunity has come my way to upgrade the 382 SDR to 256MB DDR 400 at no expense to myself. I know the ECS K7S5a only supports memory up to 266 which is rather hard to come by nowadays so what will happen if I go ahead and get the DDR 400 - will it automaticly reduce its speed to work at 266 or will my wonderful RAM tranform itself into a useless paperweight thru incompatibility?
I kinda need to know... offer expires in 24 hours...
Thanks!
Daniel
