Hello listers,

A student of mine has been told that if he wants to put an AMD K6-2/350 on
a FIC VA-503+ MB, he can't use his old EDO memory because of the 100MHz
front side bus.

Is this true?  I had never heard of such, and know that there are jumpers
for setting SDRAM speed lower when using higher front side bus settings.  I
can find no documentation regarding high processor speeds and SIMMs.

Any confirmation/denial would be welcomed.
