I'm building a new desktop and have been looking at motherboard, CPU, and RAM combos. I have a question about the integrated memory on the CPU and how it affects/works with the RAM and motherboard. I want to make sure I purchase everything compatible to ensure the greatest performance and that I don't waste money.
The integrated memory on the i5 3570K states: Dual-channel DDR3 Memory Controller supports DDR3-1333 and DDR3-1600 memory

The motherboard shows the memory standards as: DDR3 2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333

And of course you can purchase DDR3 RAM from anywhere between 1066-2400.
Questions:
1. Does the integrated memory listed on the CPU mean the max speed you couc run on the above combo would be 1333 or 1600 even though the motherboard supports up to 2400?
2. Does the 2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/etc. mean that the motherboard supports all of those memory types or that using those would be an OC for the mobo?
3. For gaming and every day task, would there be a noticeable difference between using 1333 or 2400?
I am trying to come to a solid understanding of the above and truly appreciate and assistance.
