MBP ddr3 ram clock speeds?

[george.dye]

Can the late MBP laptops use ddr3 1333ghz ram, or is it inly ddr3 1066?

Also on a side note any predictions as to the 17inch mbp specs after the updates? (I couldn't find anything via search) Core2duo or newer quad core?

no idea about the RAM.

i dont reckon they will go quad yet though

The CPU FSB is only 1066Mhz. Correct me if I'm wrong (I might be on this one) but I can't think of what benefit you could get from running the RAM faster than the FSB.

My PC runs benchmarks at a higher rate if I have my RAM run in tandem with my FSB, and not just up to manufacturer specs. So you are right, unless we are both wrong.

I reckon we might see Quad-Core in the new 17".
