Has anyone tried Kingstons HyperX Beast 2133? Will I have to run overclocked all of the time? Will it run at 1600? Thanks very much, Alvie

I run Kingston beast 2400 on mine just fine, you should have no problem. No need to overclock honestly. It supports up to DDR3-3100.

What type of speed are you looking for on your ram?When I was researching it said that up to 2400 MHz and Kingston hyper x ram was on sale for a pretty good deal. But if you are looking for looks and performance i would suggest the corsair deliminator platinum (they are rediciously expensive). But yes the motherboard will take both SSD and HDD I have a 2tb with two ssds in raid zero. Runs great!!. Hope this helps.

The predator memory can be overclocked to a higher frequency 2666 as opposed to the beast which claims 2400. Benefit would be for an imdividual that wants to overclock their computer

Hello, I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support, here to answer your question. Part number KHX16C9T3K2/16X is not compatible with the Late 2013 Macbook. Our HyperX Beast memory is a DDR3 DIMM for Desktops. The Late 2013 Macbook models do not support upgrading memory and the maximum amount of memory is up to 16GB only configurable at the time of purchase. The system does not have any memory slots to upgrade memory. For any further questions or concerns, please call us at 1-800-435-0640 (USA and Canada only) M - F 6am - 6pm PT and I or another available Technician will assist you. Thank you for selecting Kingston as your upgrade partner.

yes, absolutely! i know because my second computer has this combo on it. specifically, i have the 965 black edition cpu, model # HDZ965FBGMBOX. in case you're interested in overclocking, i have been running at a very stable 4.2ghz with reasonable temps since i set this rig up. don't be surprised if you see your motherboard temps higher than other boards. i sit around 42 cel. after having added a couple good case fans. have fun!

I run an AMD 8350 black at 5.0 ghz on a corsair h100i, 2 XFX R7990 black GPUs (varying the overclock) both on corsair h70s (with kracken mounting plates), and 36 gigs of Gskill Ripjaws ram with a custom fan setup I made myself, all set on a ASRock 990 Xtream 9 with a Strike x fan controller. So my answer would be a resounding yes! Also the ability to Dual power supply this beast (2 1000 watt Xigmatech PSUs) comes in extremely handy so......... BUY IT ALREADY! I'm sure you wont be disappointed if you are serious about building monsters, I haven't even started my custom water cooling loop in this thing yet and it still looks and runs cool as Antartica.

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!!!

I'm not sure 100% but here you can see the compatible RAM Memories and then open Kingston list. There is only Kingston HyperX Beast 32 GB Kit 2133MHz DDR3 PC3-17000. Hope it helps you..

This board will handle 2133 mhz and overclock it, it will handle up to and beyond 3000 mhz. What ram are you running?

Yes and check out www.overclock.net keep in mind that it is already highly overclocked and might be at the chips limits for performance. Welcome to the silicone lottery my friend. Some chips will do 1400/1800 on air @ 1.3v others will not budge past 1150/1600 no matter how much voltage you give it even under custom waterblocks. My 2 cents

It depends on the motherboard you will be using for this particular computer build. I would check to confirm this ram is on your motherboard's Memory Support list to ensure you do not encounter any compatibility issues. Regarding ram frequency, I would suggest higher speeds if you plan on gaming with your machine. For everyday usage, you will see little difference in performance when using 1333 or 1600 ram.

Yes, it does use upto 32GB of RAM (4x 8GB), also keep in mind max is at 2133MHz only by G.Skill! Any other maker can run all other lower speeds. I have 16GB 1600MHz Kingston Hyper X Beasts! They work awesome!

I don't know the answer to your questions - you might want to check the Kingston HyperX support FAQS - http://www.kingston.com/us/support/technical/products?model=hyperx

Yes, I have it overclocked to 4.0GHz in my system and it runs great for video editing and rendering in addition to gaming, definitely worth the money.

Yo I own this comp, its expandable to 8gb ddr 3 ram. I tend to like kingston but im still a noob to such things

2400/1866/1600/1333 is what the ram supports. So you can use the setting for 1600mhz and it will be fine because that is the compatible setting for this RAM and your mobo. But you might have to enter the bios to manually set this if it doesnt' do it automatically. Your mobo supports DDR3-800/1066/1333/1600/1866/2000. I guess it is possible for the bios to read a lower setting than the 1600 but I think that's the speed your bios will choose automatically. The compatible speeds are 1866/1600/1333, it will be 1 of the 3.

this board is rated to DDR3-2400 so you are fine... I don't know where those other answers are coming from, it will clock correctly for your CPU / Ram combo then you can OC to wherever you want.... these other answers are completely wrong... it won't crash anything... it's completely automatic and works great... jeez
