but putting 2pcs of 1gb with a speed of 800mhz wont be detected only one of the ram will be read? ^_^ im still confuse with these

Front Side Bus 1066/800/533 MHz
Memory 2 x 240-pin DIMM sockets support max. 4GB DDR2 533/400 non-ECC unbuffered memory

if you take a look max of the said speed of memory is 533? in the FSB is 1066/800/533
so will a 1pc 2gb ram with speed of 800mhz works? because of the FSB 800? thank you hehe

From what I can gather, I'd say no. The board seems to refer to 400mhz and 533mhz DDR2 as the full speed, after DDR (Double Data Rate) has been applied.
i.e. what it means by 400mhz and 533mhz memory is memory that's actually 200 and 266, doubled to 533, Not memory that was 400mhz and 533, doubled to 800 and 1066 as is common with newer boards.
Judging by the age and low specification of the board I'd say this is accurate. It would seem to be limited to PC3200 (400Mhz) and PC4200 (533Mhz). You could try putting faster memory in, but I have no idea if it would work or not.
