That mobo comes with 8gb of ares 1600 ram so just get 8gb more of the 1600. Very little difference from 1600 to 1866.

 

[Fosters]

May want to swap out that Ram for this type:

G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL

This is 1600 and the one you posted is 1866, don't Get me Wrong i am sure you could get it to work, but it may not Post and you may have to Monkey around with the Settings ..

I also just Seen if you buy that MoBo you get a Free set of Ram id say just use that Free 8GB 1600 Ram, 8 GB is Great for Gaming and 16GB Won't Help Game's at all if any, Plus you have two Slots free to upgrade later if wanted .


Anyways Just my Two Cents

I got the 8GB from the Mobo + 8GB more to make 16. My main use is going to be high res 3D modeling so the RAM is useful.

Thanks for the input!
