The MoBo supports upto 1866Mhz sticks for stock speeds, and these are great for the price:

Memory: G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory ($73.80 @ Newegg)


Can i use CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 Desktop Memory Model CMZ16GX3M2A2133C10 ?

CMZ16GX3M2A2133 'C10' or '2133C9" anything means alot to use RAMs and are we sure this XMP will run on AMD platform MoBo AMP?

C10 means CAS latency of 10, which's the time stick takes to give data to MC after it asks for it, C9 is faster than C10, but the difference is nowhere near significant. And yes enabling AMP will allow 2133Mhz speed.

will C10 cause any problems if C9 is recommended in MoBo's Catalog?
