What does DDR3 1600+ Mean?

[cartnickz]

I was looking at a motherboard and I went to check out what it supports. I've seen DDR3 ????(O.C.), but i've never seen DDR3 ????+. Does the + mean DDR3 ???? and higher or is it another fancy thing for overclock

If you could give us the model number of the motherboard, it would be easier to give you a correct answer.

Wow, didn't expect to see that one! Anyhow, according to EVGA's Compatibility List, it's clearly referring to overclocking. They just used a less-common way of stating it.
