I have ddr3 4gb x2 Cors veng pro 2133mhz, i have 2 slots more free, if i buy 8gb x2 cors veng pro but 1866mhz it won't work? can i do something do disoverlock it ? so it would be 1866mhz all sticks? 1866mhz in my country costs way less, so i dont want to spend +50eur on same +16gb but just cause its 2133mhz as mines 4x2

Yes the BIOS can downclock the memory but that does not mean it will work. There is la lot more to a memory spec than just the clock speed. Mixing ram is generally a no-no, it may work fine, it may not work at all, and if you are buying it you don't want to be stuck with something you cannot return. Its not worth the gamble.

As said above, there's no guarantees they will even play together, and if they do initially it would prob be to the mobos default of 1333 or 1600, from there you would have to manually set them up. What are the DRAM model #s and what mobo and CPU (which can play in also, with Intel you have a much better chance of them working or getting them to play than with AMD ;)

Already running my pc with new ram, bought HyperX Fury 16gb ddr3 1866mhz CL10, pretty impressed, all works fine and I even like design of its heatspreaders
