So im build my first PC and i just brought a Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 MotherBoard and i want to get this ram A-Data XPG Xtreme Series DDr3 PC17000/2133MHz BUT this Ram is not on the Memory Compatibility on the Guide, Should i just choose another Memory or will this on work???
Thanks
Ok i'm currently in a similar situation im running a 8350 and the gtx 660 SO the ram im using is kingston hyper x predator 2400hmz So i just finished this build and well i guess i kinda rushed it and becuase im tight i cut corners i shouldn't have the MotherBoard im pairing all this with the ASrock 970DE3 REGRET So yeah Dont get this board BUT i haven't had any problems with the compatability of the ram says the baord only supports 1866hmz OC.... so no problems so far the ram valtage was down from recommanded by .5 and was working at 1.60 fine.
as of now i'v be looking arround and no am3+ motherboards that i have see are saying there supporting 2133mhz+ ram
the ramm will work but probably not on 2133 mhz on the Asus M5A78 L i gues the max support will be arround 2000mhz, ofc the 2133mhz ramm wil work but you probably have to do some manual timing and voltage settings to it, just to get them runn on 2000mhz max..
