what's the point of the 667 FSB with the N280 if the ram is only supported @ 533?

[holmes4]

It may be cheaper or more available. Another theory is that running faster-rated RAM at the lower speed will run cooler, though that may not always be true.

The ram on the 10v isn't limited to 533mhz... it does support 800MHz.

I believe that 800mhz is supported but the Intel processor will only allow it to run up to 533mhz..667mhz is supported also but again the Intel Processor limits it to 533mhz this is according to what I have read here in other threads

[holmes4]

It's the chipset, not the processor, that sets the limit.

I stand corrected...thank you Holmes..
I was close...I knew it was either or

So what I gleam from this is that the max it (10v) will run is 2GB. (true?)

What does the "— Single-channel with 1 SO-DIMM (up to 1 GB) and Memory Down (up to 1 GB)" mean??

Thanks

Correct - 2GB max. To be honest, I am not sure what is being referred to by that line.

Thanks.

I've got to find a good deal on a 2GB stick then...I think I've got a line on a Dell Service tech that might tear down my Mini and install the ram for me...too many little wires, clips, etc...

We had two of our E6500's get there LCD's replaced here at the office and he thought one of his fellow techs would be interested in making a little scratch on the side.
