Fast RAM in a Lesser Motherboard

Kimchiliu · Dec 14, 2013

I found this RAM for an unreal price. 8GB at 2400 for $60 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313399
I'm planning on using it on a new APU build soon and was wondering if it would be compatible with a MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 because it states it only supports speeds of up to 2133.

Those memory modules aren't listed in MSI's compatibility list. That doesn't mean they won't work in that board, it just means that they weren't tested. If they do in fact work then the BIOS should set it up at a slower speed that the chipset can support. As with any APU, the faster the memory that you can give it, the better it will perform.

When you install sticks, they go to the mobos default - generally 1333, for DRAM 1600 and above, need to be set manually or utilizing the OC profiles - it's not going to do it 'automatically'
