Ok so I'm working on my first gaming build and I want to get the msi z77a-gd65 lga 115 atx and corsair vengeance DDR3 1600 in the mobo specs it says it's ddr3 standards are 3000 2800 2600 and 2400 does this mean the vengeance won't work?
 
The intel sandy bridge memory controller max spec per intel is 1333.
Ivey bridge is 1600. You can over clock the memory controller built into intel CPU. Before you buy any ram look under the mb vendor tested list for CPU and ram. It a good guild that if you buy x ram it should work without any issue.
