Hello,

I've recently bought new hardware and I have few questions:

1. I searched for my Intel Pentium G3220 and I saw that supports DDR3 - 1333. That means that I can use only 1333 Mhz memory?
2. What should I do to get 1600 Mhz frequency?
3. A SATA 3.0 (6Gb/s) is better in gaming than SATA 2.0 (3Gb/s)?
4. Does Windows 8.1 work great with those ?

Thank you.

If your mobo supports 1600 cances are good you might be able to run the sticks at 1600, it may require extra voltage to the MC (memory controller), not a lot. To run them at 1600, simply go into BIOS and enable XMP then select profile 1. As far as SATA - if this is a standard HD then doesn't matter a whole lot, if it's a SSD then SATA III is definitely better. Win 8 would be fine as would Win 7
