Upgrading & don't understand slim memory choices


Recommended Posts

I am building a back up to my current confuser using similar mobo.

I have the mobo and processor but the QVL is lacking in choices for memory and

the selections they show seem to have issues when the item numbers are googled.

Any suggestions?

ASUS P5E3 Deluxe WiFi

Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q9300 2.5 Ghz

L2 Cache 6 MB. Socket LGA 775

might get crossfired

XFX ATI Radeon HD 5770 HD-577X-ZNFC

also I have seen SATA items that are SATA 3 or something.

Will those things work with this old mobo?

Crucial.com has compatible modules for your motherboard.

Here is a review of the Asus P5E3 Deluxe WiFi. Your current items seem compatible.

SATA 3 hard disks are backward-compatible with previous versions of SATA. The SATA controller will just be the bottleneck in maximum obtainable speed. Some newer hard disks have "force switches" that force them to use slower speeds on older SATA controllers.
