Exclusive: Retail Core i7 CPUs More Powerful than Originally Reported

Posted 03/06/2009 at 09:49:40am

Two weeks back I upgraded from a 2.8G P4 to a Asus P6T Deluxe w/ Core i7-920 w/ 1066 memory. Very nice machine.  I just read this article but I don't understand if/how it applies to me.  Is this to say that I CAN put in 1600 memory and then go into the BIOS and tell it the memory is 1600, and the 920 will run at that speed?  Or is this saying the 920 has locked memory multipliers and it simply cannot run faster memory?
