I was looking at the ripjaw X series ram at newegg and a 2x2gb set at 1333 is 5 dollars less than the 1600 2x2gb set. On the intel spec sheet it says it uses a maximum of 1333mhz, if the cpu is overclocked can it utilize a higher RAM speed? Also, if I get the 1600, can I lower the multiplier for the ram to make it 1333 on the new p67 boards? If so, is it worth the exta $5 to get the better rate ram and maybe tighten the timings?
note: the board I am looking into is the ASUS P8P67 Pro, $390 combo with the i5-2500k and comes with Sid Meiers Civ 5
