I have an Intel 945GNT Motherboard along with a Pentium D processor running at 3.4GHz and 3 sticks of 1GB RAM at 533MHz. I have given it to one of my engineers for repairs and he said that the motherboard is dead as one of the components got overheated although the processor seems to be fine. I would like to know where if possible i can get another D945GNT motherboard OR what motherboard would be good replacement for the D945GNT so that i can continue to use the same processor & RAM sticks?

The D945GNT appears to have been discontinued - however, processors are always made to fit a certain standard socket type. In this case, you will be looking for a motherboard that uses socket LGA775 and has a FSB (Front-Side Bus) speed of 533 Mhz in order to use the same processor and RAM.

These motherboards are still available through the internet, although they are getting older and may be harder to find, but any one of them would work properly. My recommendation would be to read as many reviews as possible before deciding on a certain one.

Motherboards that support 533MHz RAM seem to be harder to find these days, but boards with 800 MHz FSB speeds are pretty common, so you might have to buy new RAM sticks to go along with the new motherboard. The good thing is, RAM isn't all that expensive these days. I would advise checking well-known internet retailers to see if you can find a board that suits you.

Hope this is helpful!

Problems with new ram

This = NO

The Foxconn P4M800P7MB-RS2H motherboard supports ram memory that is either 400MegaHertz, or 533MHz.

You have installed 667MHz ram memory.

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/3274794/-/Product.html

You also need to watch the Front Side Bus (FSB) of the processor you are using.

Ram memory typically operates at HALF of the FSB of the Processor.

Processor FSB support is 800MHz maximum.
Half of that is 400MHz.
You CAN use 533MHz ram memory, however.

(This is DDR2 Sdram ram memory.
PC2-3200 is DDR2 at 400MHz.
PC2-4200 is DDR2 at 533MHz. (Also known as PC2-4300. Depends on the ram memory manufacturer.

PC2-3200 actually operates at 200MHz. { Max} It is 'Dual Pumped'
PC2-4200 actually operates at 266MHz )

What to do?
Hopefully you saved the carton/s the ram memory came in.
Ship them back, get the ram memory you need.

ALSO;

What is the FSB of the Processor you have installed?
Don't know?
Post back in a Comment as to the model name, and model number.

(Example; Intel Pentium D model 805,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_D_microprocessors#.22Smithfield.22_.2890_nm.29

FSB support is 533MHz
No, you cannot use 533MHz ram memory. { PC2-4200 }
PC2-3200 is the max.

Pentium D model 820 for example, you can )

My Ram is 512MBytes and Motherboard Chipset model is i945GZ. Can i use 2GB Ram?????

Hardware Support
The Biostar i945GZ 775 SE supports RAM a maximum of 2GB using its two 240-pin DIMM slots, each can be populated by a 1GB stick. The board supports DDR2 400 or 533. With two identical RAM sticks installed, the board will switch in dual-channel mode operation.For the support of processor, the board can accommodate Intel Pentium 4, Core2Duo and Pentium D, even Celeron D, all with clock speed up to 3.8GHz; and all are based on a LGA775-pin socket architecture. use an Intel Pentium D 820 2.8GHz (dual-core, Smithfield) processor on this board. use the following components to complete the system: CPU: Intel Pentium D 820 (Smithfield) 2.8GHz, dual-core
RAM: Hynix PC2-3200 2x512MB (1024MB) DDR2 400 HD: Seagate SATA-I Barracuda 7200.8 250GB CD/DVD-ROM Drives: HP dvd640, Phillips DVD-ROM

Can i up grade my single core cpu pen4 550 3,4GHz to a Quad core or dual core either one would help

Depends on the socket type.. Socket 423 and 478 do not support core duo or quad core processor types. However, if you have LGA 775 (aka socket T) your motherboard will support the following:
Intel Pentium 4 (2.60 - 3.80 GHz)
Intel Celeron D (2.53 - 3.60 GHz )
Intel Pentium 4 Extreme Edition (3.20 - 3.73 GHz)
Intel Pentium D (2.66 - 3.60 GHz)
Pentium Extreme Edition (3.20 - 3.73 GHz)
Pentium Dual-Core (1.40 - 3.33 GHz)
Intel Core 2 Duo (1.60 - 3.33 GHz)
Intel Core 2 Extreme (2.66 - 3.20 GHz)
Intel Core 2 Quad (2.33 - 3.00 GHz)
Intel Xeon (1.86-3.40 GHz)
Intel Celeron (1.60 - 2.40 GHz)

I want some information about Nvidia GeForce 9400 GT 1GB DDR 2

If you are using Dual Core the mother board you are using may have PCI Express Slot. So that you may install Graphics card. Only for particular lower end mother board doesn't have this feature. Any way tell me your motherboard make and model no. e.g., Intel DG31PR, 945GNT, DG41TY etc.,

Dear Sir i have pentium 4 motherboard 865gbx and i wanted to upgrade the ram. so maxixmum how much ram it will support and wat shd be speed like..333mhz??


IT supports Maximum 2GB DDR400 RAM.
It mainly depends on the Processor speed.I think 1gb RAM is sufficient for Your Pentium 4 configuration. If you use more than 1Gb.there is no remarkable speed difference between them.So better choice is use 1GB RAM.

Can you add to much Ram for the processor to handle?

That additional RMA will be good for your computer so it will be much faster and don't worry everything should work fine there after adding new RAM to your computer....

Can you have to much Ram for a processor?

You'll be fine. If you have been on crucial you know then whether the modules need to be in matched pairs, which is what it looks like you are doing. The only limitations on RAM are when you go to 4GB using 32-bit processing. It will most likely not all show. But with 2.5GB, you should be humming along quite nicely.

P4-2.66Mhz processor run on a ECS motherboard 945GCT-m/1333

This may sound counterintuitive but its just a suggestion. I see by your prior post you are using a PC2-4200 1GB ram stick. Have you tried using faster ram? I suspect a FSB timing issue, even though by the numbers it should be running at 533MHz (which is 5x133).

This motherboard defaults to setting the clock speed by SPD (serial presence detect) but can be set manually in the BIOS. See if you can beg/borrow a PC2-5400 stick to see how it affects the timing and performance.
