I have an ASUS P8H77-M with Intel I5-3330 which one will be better for my pc? 1866 mhz or 2133 mhz? The price is the same and already have 8 gb of RAM and two free slots

Whichever one best matches the RAM you already have, to be honest. If you were getting an all new kit, I would say 2133 if they're the same price. You won't see much of an improvement over 1600 either way unless you're overclocking, but if they're the same price...

Hey, there are a few things to consider here. The h77 chipset does not support ram overclocking, so the dimms will run at their base speed. In this case, both sets of vengeance ram are 1600 mhz sticks that are certified by corsair to run at a certain overclocked speed - in this case 1866 or 2133. You won't be able to take advantage of that increased speed with your h77 board, either way. Another thing is that even if your h77 has four ram slots, it is only dual channel, and you won't see a speed improvement, only a capacity improvement. On the other hand, if you really want to buy this, compare the speed AND timings. If the timings are the same, but the speed is higher, then that is considered higher quality ram. I would suggest replacing your current 8gb with the new 16gb, and not installing both

It looks like your motherboard uses DDR3, but only supports up to 1333 mhz; these would be overkill, as your ram would downclock from 1866 mhz to 1333 mhz, so save yourself some money and buy the cheaper 1333 mhz ram

I do not have an Asus z97 deluxe, but I looked it up on the Asus website, and that motherboard supports DDR3 1600mhz. You can use 1866mhz ram, but in order to get 1866mhz speed you will need to overclock it in the bios. Otherwise, your bios will lower its speed automatically to a lower, but supported speed. Great ram though, very high quality.

Yes this CPU does support DDR3-2133, in fact it will support up to DDR3-3200. I just build a PC with this CPU using DDR3-2400 and it works great. 1866 isn't "outdated" per say even though there are faster frequencies.

It should those 800Mhz memory modules were in production back then, yet if your cpu is fast enough and the motherboard in the Dell supports them ; the 1066 Mhz memory modules might be a better choose to get instead. If you are after a faster system; why not get memory modules that will go the max speed it can go? They are only a little bit more expensive than the 800's are, yet are much more up to date than the 800's.

This motherboard is rated for DDR3 2400+ /1600/1333/1066, up to 32GB. I wouldn't try it if 1866 is a deal-breaker for you.

My computer works fine with the original 1gb ram chip so I am wondering if it was the 2gb chip I installed that caused the problem. I originally bought the crucial 800ghz module rather than the 667 as I had read that it would not cause any problems even if the computer could not fully use the 800. The Asus website does not even list this computer, let alone the memory recommendation so I am at a loss. I returned the 800 to Amazon but hate to replace it with the 667 in case that is not the correct memory either. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Ddr3 sdram is the type of memory and 1600 is the speed/frequency it operates at. 1600 is a good speed. Refer to your motherboard for compatibility.

I can't speak to your cpu/mobo combination and how far you can push this RAM, but I'm running this RAM in a Gigabyte MATX mobo with an AMD 6300, at 8-8-8-24 on 1.5v at 1600MHz. No stability problems or heat issues. In fact, the RAM only gets mildly above room temp. I suspect with a little tweaking, I could easily push this up to 1866MHz or perhaps beyond. That said, Conrad is right in that it's rated for higher than what you've spec'd out, so I doubt you'd have any trouble. I just wish I'd bought 4 sticks (16gb) when it was still $65 a pair (8gb) instead of $85!

Yes, the motherboard will clock the speed down to the 2133. You just wont get the full potential speed out of the ram that it has.

Mohamed,1600 is the native speed for the DDR3 memory (meaning that it doesn't require overclocking to use it.) I use 1600 MHz ram on mine.These are the supported modes: DDR3 3000(O.C.)/2933(O.C.)/2800(O.C.)/2666(O.C.)/2600(O.C.)/2500(O.C.)/2400(O.C.)/2200(O.C.)/2133(O.C.)/2000(O.C.)/1866(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333 MHz

In terms of the RAM you'll want to look at the RAM speed standard that this motherboard supports as well as the number of slots. Slot number is easy - its 4. The decision you'll have to make is whether you want to get 2 8GB RAM DIMMs or 4 4GB RAM DIMMs. the RAM standard is a little trickier. I was rather surprised that the Amazon listing doesn't have it anywhere in the description... but I put the support RAM standards here: Memory Standard: DDR3 3200(OC)/3100(OC)/3000(OC)/2933(OC)/ 2800(OC)/2666(OC)/2600(OC)/2500(OC)/2400(OC)/2200(OC)/2133(OC)/2000(OC)/1866(OC)/1800(OC)/1600/1333 This means that whatever RAM you look at should be at one of these speeds and the RAM should be DDR3 For the Graphics card you want to look at the available expansion slots. In this case it has a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot. So you will want to look at graphics cards that can support that. These slots are backwards compatible so you don't necessary need to get a PCI-E 3.0 card if you don't have the money, but you can get the best performance that way.

No! It only excepts DDR3 speeds of @ 2133Mhz, 1800Mhz, 1600MHz, 1333Mhz, 1066MHz, and 800Mhz... If it's not listed by the Manufacturer as being able to except it -- it won't!!! I wouldn't try it, or will or might damage the Motherboard and other hardware components!!! It will only except the @ "1800 (PC3 14400)"!!! If you already bought the (Kingston HyperX Fury 1866mhz) -- than this not the Motherboard for you!!! It you're looking to purchase @ Memory with a Motherboard in a package deal, and want those high speeds in the 1800Mhz+ range -- than I would suggest buying either @ "DDR3 1800Mhz (PC3 14400)" or the higher @ "DDR3 2133Mhz (PC3 17000)" chipsets!!! For almost the exact same equal price as the @ Kingston Hyper X Fury 1866Mhz 2X8GB kit @ $190., you can get 16gb package of @ DDR3 2133Mhz for roughly around $170-$190., and some even cheaper than that and get better performance for the price also!!!

Yes it will. But keep in mind, if your planning on overclocking, you won't be able to go past 2133mhz. Other then that it will work perfectly!

Received my two and it is in fact 1.6GHz... I guess it was just amazon as usual not taking the time out to get these little details corret. Go ahead and buy and remember it only has 2gb ram so if ya buy two like i did you can just grab an 8gb kit and sell back one with 4gb... no brainer.

You're better to get an 8GB chip that runs at CL11 timing, as the laptop will reduce the frequency the RAM runs at otherwise to accommodate the faster timing, resulting in slower performance. Myself and many others have bough the 1600 MHz Cl11 8GB Patriot, and it works like a champ: Patriot Signature DDR3 8GB 1600MHz SODIMM (PC3 12800) PSD38G16002S

if you go to the hp pavilion a6217c and check the specs. you will find out what type of ram and how much it will be able to run. then buy that type.
