Specs for the Asus P4P800SE Motherboard claim it supports DCMA DDR400/333/266 non-ECC DDR SDRAM, with hyper path tech...
how do you work out the ram speed from that (ie pc4400, pc3500, pc3200 etc)

amount of sticks required
Also, how do you tell how many sticks are required... The Asus P4P800SE motherboard has four available slots, but do you need to group the RAM into sets of two or can you place them in singly?
One other question, The motherboard mentions it has AI Audio, with a 8-channel audio I/O port at the back of the motherboard. Is this a sound card in itself or is it just a sound management function?

pc200*8(8Bytewide)= PC1600
pc266*8 = PC2100
pc333*8 = PC2700
pc400*8 = PC3200
As for the amount of memory. That is totally up to you and the amount of money you wish to spend. Everyone will collectivly agree that 1gig is about the best overall setup to have. When pairing them up, you will need a matched set. IE 2*ddr400. You (which your mobo does support) also can setup dual channel memory. This consists of installing it on either the EVEN/ODD slots. IE you either install one chip in slot 1 and slot 3 or you go with slot 2 and slot 4. Asus colors these slots differantly to better distinguish them.
Your mobo has onboard audio.
-ASUS http://usa.asus.com/products/mb/socket478/p4p800se/overview.htmAI series motherboards employed the world's first intelligent audio CODEC. The 6-channel AD1985 audio CODEC automatically detects and identifies what types of peripherals are plugged into the audio I/O jacks and notifies users of inappropriate connection, meaning there will be no more confusion of Line-in, Line-out and Mic jacks.
