Yes your motherboard does support it, they are both DDR3, and your board supports upto 1600mhz, so fine there too, as for installing it, power off, remove the power cable from the back of your PC and hit the power button on the case a couple of times to discharge the power supplies capacitors, next remove the side panel off the case, take out the old ram and put in the new, make sure you get it the right way around, its keyed, if you look at the gold connectors on the ram you will see one side is longer than the other, put it back together and power on, if its working it will boot.

but it is listed that my mobo supports only uto 1333mhz.
so what would you say it will automatically make ram frequency low from 1600 to 1333??

it will support but your motherboard will downclock them to suit the processor if your running an i3 or i5 will reconise the ram properly to get the most out of it but i run bigger ram kits than i should but it works out cheaper that way, but i alieviate it by tuning my bios in to suit depending on mb
