Hello Guys!

I want to buy the G.Skill RipjawsV 16GB DDR4-3200MHz (F4-3200C14D-16GVR)

But my Intel Core i5-6600K memory types are DDR4-1866/2133, DD3L-1333/1600 @1.35V

What that means? My ram wont run at full speed 3200Mhz?

My motherboard is Asrock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming K4 supporting 3200Mhz speed.

It's possible that all you'll have to do is enable the XMP profile in the BIOS and it'll work right away. But I've heard that sometimes high speed kits take a little bit of fiddling, e.g. CPU overclock, to get them working properly. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with this myself. The highest speed RAM I've used is my current DDR4 2800 MHz, and it worked at that speed without having to overclock my CPU.

That being said, 3200 MHz isn't too crazy, and it's only two sticks (running 4 sticks at higher speeds is usually more difficult), so it may very well work without any additional tweaking.
