p4c800 turbo mode

it says you need quality memory in order to use this... do you think two of the corsair xms pc3200 ddr400 256mb is good enough?

That should work if you put them into the two blue DDR slots.

Are you looking at the C2 or LL modules?

Corsair PC3200 modules aren't listed as compatible with these motherboards, although my four modules seem to do okay.

However, for best compatibility, get Corsair PC3500 C2 modules. These are listed as compatible, and are your best bet. In hindsight, I should've bought the PC3500 C2 modules instead.

With the Corsair, manually set the memory voltage to 2.75v to ensure best compatibility.

I have P4P800, and Corsair wouldn't run in turbo. Corsair make some good memory, but the 865/875 chipsets do not like it. Try some Kingston HyperX, or Mushkin, at least PC3500 if you plan to overclock.

It is C2. :D

Those C2 modules will probably work okay. If you want Corsair, I highly recommend jumping to the PC3500 C2 to avoid compatibility problems.

My Corsair memory allows me to run in turbo with the Intel 875P chipset on my Asus motherboard...
