u can, but like i mentioned earlier, the speed will be reduced to DDR667, so it is kinda waste to take DDR800...
u want a good but cheaper ram? then just take the value ram lor, any brand would do, as long as its cheap..1gb ddr667 only costs RM80 currently

8600GT is ok, but for 7950GT, it is highly advised that u upgrade ur psu to the true power version
besides 8600GT, u can also consider the 2600XT

Hello everyone pc noob here.I want to buy a new GC but i dont know which GC i should buy.currently im using
Biostar k8T890(http://www.biostar-usa.com/mbdetails.asp?model=k8t890-a9) this MOBO which support both agp and pcie.right now in using agp and planing to buy Pcie.my budget is around rm200 only.Thx

why not? ram supported by motherboard and ram that comes with graphic card are TOTALLY different things at all
if u apply theory like this, means we need to use the DDR4 compatible motherboard so that we can use the ATi graphic card that comes with DDR4 ram

so its like this--> since ur mobo supports PCIE 16x, u better grab urself a 7300GT or 7600GS, depends on their price
or u can increase ur budget summore to get urself a 8500GT, any brand would do

can ddr2 ram's run on a ddr1 mobo ?

definitely can't, unless u r talking about the motherboard that can support both DDR and DDR2

but if its a ddr2 mobo, it can run a ddr1 ram right ?

nope
its either one or none..
ddr and ddr2 has a different notch..means they aren't physically same

so you mean i can buy ANY pcie GC...thx kalakatu

yeah, mobo supported has no relation with gc rams
so buy something u need and can afford
but might want to consider if ur others specs wil bottleneck the card u get or not
like for example getting 8800ultra for a p4 pc will be a waste of money, since the processor can't keep up with the gc power

im planing to buy ASUS GF 8500GT.My mobo is biostar K8T890.My processor is AMD Athlon 64 Processor3000+ and i have 1g ram.Does my processor can keep up with that GC?
