Hello, since im not good with computers , i just need an info that i dont found using "search".

Does the I7 860 allow me to use more than a 1333mhz memory in dual channel (2000mhz dual chanel for exemple), or does it ONLY allow a 1333mhz ?

Thanks.

PS: Sry for the bad english im not an english native.

According to the i7 860 specifications page, the memory types are DDR3-1066/1333 which indicate that using more than 1333MHz would probably be unwise.

Using components incorrectly beyond or outside their specifications can and will cause unnecessary problems, resulting in repairs which will end up costing you more money than you may have budgeted.

Either click or copy and paste the following URL into your web-browser's address-bar and press "Enter" http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=41316 http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=41316 This will take you directly to the info you were looking for.

I hope this will be helpful to you.
