Welcome to PCStats T31000! :D

So far only the Pentium4 3.43EE and 3.73EE CPUs support the 1066MHz FSB. At the time the chips were release Intel also announced the 925XE chipset which offer support for the 1066MHz bus and PC6400. Asus, Abit and Gigabyte are three companies I know have a 925XE motherboard in their line-up though there are probably others. I honestly can't recommend one over the others because I have really been checking the reviews on them.

Good luck, let us know if you get one and how it all works out!

If you want looks and nice running board check this out:http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=13-127-189&depa=0.

If you do not plan on overclocking, you do not need such fast memory. There is no motherboard that natively supports memory of that speed.

doesnt intel have some 1066fsb boards out yet?

doesnt intel have some 1066fsb boards out yet? They'd probably have a very hard time selling the P4 EE 3.46Ghz and 3.73Ghz processors if they didn't have 1066FSB's to support them ;)

The Intel 925XE chipset supports the 1066Mhz FSB.
