AMD FX-8320 RAM Compatibility

AnthonyWebb · Oct 30, 2014

Hey all,

I am looking into purchasing an AMD FX 8320, I would just like to know what the max RAM speed it can support. I am purchasing some 2133 MHz RAM and don't want to waste the money if it only supports 1600 MHz.

Below are the components I am planning on purchasing soon.

Officially it supports up to 1866MHz. In reality 2133MHz won't be a problem.

even that can vary from chip to chip to the lesser

So, it will clock at 1866 when installed, but I can OC it to 2133?

Alright, well as it turns out, I can't spend that much due to getting pulled over, so I am going with a 6300 instead, will that be able to run at least 1866 MHz RAM?

AnthonyWebb :

Yes. It should be the same really.
