I was looking forward to upgrade my actual RAM (2x4GB DDR3 1333) to 16GB with high speeds without the need to overclock (Afraid to burn the Motherboard or hurt the BIOS/Etc)

My actual board is a P8Z68-V PRO GEN3 by ASUS and it has an Intel i5-2500K at stock speed with a Thermaltake Frio OCK Cooler (This is important for the following)

The thing is that the CPU can only get up to 1333mhz while the Motherboard can go up to 2133 around (Here's the specs http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8Z68V_PROGEN3/specifications/ ). Things are a bit complicated to upgrade to something better without just amplifying the memory capacity to 16GB

What can i do?. Reason for upgrade is for future games but also basic Video Editing with Adobe Premiere Pro CC.
 
This is what I used with my 2500K and P8Z68-V Pro Gen3:

Memory speeds wont benefit you much as they are already pretty fast. If you go in and do XMP it will pull the specs from the RAM and clock it. And the board is designed to take that kind of speed so it wont burn it up.

Get rid of the Kingston and just get the above kit. Will work out way better.
