I have an ASUS P7P55D Pro Mobo.
I want the faster MHz I can get right now I was Looking at a Patriot 2x8 Viper 3 set at 1866 MHz . but the specs for the mobo say ................
4 x DIMM, Max. 16 GB, DDR3 2200(O.C.)*/1600/1333/1066 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory
Dual Channel memory architecture
Supports Intel® Extreme Memory Profile (XMP)
*Hyper DIMM support is subject to the physical characteristics of individual CPUs. Some hyper DIMMs only support one DIMM per channel. Please refer to Memory QVL for details.
so it looks like 1600 is the best i can get or would the 1866 MHz still work since it can oc to 2200.
Just dont want to waste a bunch of cash on something that is not right for my system .
