Answer» ok, im building a new computer after a stupid video card RUINED my motherboard...
I want to use these parts...
1. MSI P4M890M-L Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Item #:N82E16813130061R
2. Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 2.2GHz LGA 775 Processor
Item #:N82E16819115031
3. Kingston 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Desktop Memory
Item #:N82E16820134045
the item numbers are for newegg.com...
I've heard that MSI motherboards are good and I've never had problems, but I've never used core 2 duo with MSI so what can I expect?
Also, are these components compatible?Everything is alright aside from the RAM. The motherboard SUPPORTS RAM only up to 533Mhz. But you could probably use the 667Mhz modules by overclocking.
And on a side NOTE, I think that the E4500 is overkill in any CASE. You don't need an 11x multiplier for a CPU that can't get past 4.0Ghz.
