I have the i5-4670K chip, says it supports "Memory types DDR3-1333/1600". Can I use RAM faster than 1600 with the Haswell chipset?

The MSI Z87-G43 support standard memory only up to 1600, but it supports faster memory but that are specific for the MSI Z87-G43. Please see bellow (Taken from the Manual). The OC means Overclokiing and you will have to tweak with the BIOS to make it work. If you're not into overclocking stay with the 1333 or 1600.Supports DDR3 3000(OC)/ 2800(OC)/ 2666(OC)/ 2600(OC)/2400(OC)/ 2200(OC)/ 2133(OC)/ 2000(OC)/ 1866(OC)/ 1600/ 1333/1066 MHz

according to the MSI website you can use up to 3000 Mhz memory with this board. http://us.msi.com/product/mb/Z87G43.html#?div=Detail

I believe so. If you have the motherboard manual, which you can download from online site it will tell you what are all the compatible DDR RAM modules you can use. I do not have the manual handy right now but from what I remember last I think it will support DDR3 1333 MHz memory module.

Yes your 1600mhz ram will work, but will not run at the full 1600 speed. It will be capped at 1333mhz.

Depending on the exact model, you might be wiser getting a PC3-10600 1333Mhz memory module instead of the one you have selected. The documentation I've read on your computer, specifically, the HP DV6-3250us or the DV6-3230us uses PC3-10600 1333Mhz memory modules. I do not recommend mixing speeds even though it says that faster DDR2 memory will step down to the lowest speed DDR3 memory speed installed. I don't trust that. I match memory types and speeds very carefully.

This memory runs at 533 megahertz. You must confirm that your computer supports this speed. If you don't have this data, go to crucial.com and download their scanner...it will tell you what memory modules you require.

Yes, but go with faster RAM 1600mhz or faster. This one is 1333mhz and your board supports faster memory.Example:http://www.amazon.com/G-SKILL-Ripjaws-240-Pin-Desktop-F3-2133C9D-8GXL/dp/B00FP1VRYC/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid;=1409171013&sr;=8-2&keywords;=2133+ripjaw

No such thing exists. You may want to try 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz though. It should be plenty for almost anything normal. However, I suspect you like to play games. If my suspicion is correct then I'd advise you to upgrade to 16GB DDR3 1333Mhz / 1600Mhz / 1866Mhz / 2400Mhz. You will not notice significant differences between these speeds.

Personally I used the G.Skill Ripjaws X series ram. 8GB(2x4GB) DDR3-1600.No problems at all! Do mind the relatively high heat fins they have when you are looking at CPU coolers, if you plan on doing liquid cooled then you should be fine.

If you're not messing around with clock speeds, you only need to make sure that your mainboard supports your CPU, and that your mainboard supports your memory as well. Your mainboard manufacturer should have a list of supported memory modules. You don't mention which it is, though.As long as you have the correct type of memory (DDR3 in this case) and form factor, most modules will operate fine - but you don't want to pay for features on a memory module that will just be switched off by the board, so that's why you should pick a memory your board manufacturer lists as compatible.

RAM compatibility is a function of the motherboard you choose, not the CPU. Read the specifications for the motherboard. That will tell you what RAM is designed to work with it. But in general, the rule regarding RAM is, "The more the better." I have this CPU (overclocked to 4.3Ghz) in an Asus Rampage IV Black motherboard with G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series (2133) memory (8MB x 8 for a total of 64GB). Even though it is rated at 2133, I can't keep a stable system above 1866. You are better off saving money on high-speed memory and using that money instead to make you system faster other ways, such as buying a much memory as the motherboard can handle, buying a solid-state drive for your primary drive, buying a more robust video card, upgrading your cooling so you can overclock the CPU higher, etc.

sure, your processor support DDR3-1600MHz, but what is your motherboard?, you need check this feature in the motherboard, and check if works in dual, triple or quad channel memory...

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..

I bet yes but you should do research. Check Google for ASUS P8B75-M/CSM spec or simple use the word RAM compatibility. What if not compatible issues are bios reject boot, occasion bosd, or simply not able to use your ram to fullest potential. Lastly remember this is the ram you want ddr3 1600. You'd have to overclock to gain 1800 speed. Enjoy take your time it's worth it

You would have to refer to the specifications of the Haswell motherboard for more information. The specs will tell you the type of memory supported (i.e. DDR2, DDR3, etc), the speed (1600 MHz, 2000 MHz, etc), and the number of pins as well as how many slots are available on the board. Always look at the motherboard specs first before making other hardware component purchase decisions.

Yes, 1866 is the default RAM supported and will default to that speed with 1866 RAM. Others up to 3000 will have to have XMP enabled or manually adjusted in BIOS.
787076
Just so people know. You have to specifically enable 1600 RAM speeds within the BIOS. Or else it will default to 1333.

If memory serves me correctly, these sticks will work with the latest I-7 chip to date when I ordered my set. I am running the AM3+ socket (AMD cpu) but the Mobo baby sits itself for the most part as far as initial settings. Do be careful to notice that the frequency of the ram is going to be listed for it's capable of on the stick but if you enter BIOS and see lower then the box states don't flip out. There is always a reason for this and it is usually due to the fact that the ram will only go as fast as the board allows with the initial stepping and voltage settings. If you want faster try the included automatic over clocking software included with the motherboard. :-) I hope this has helped.
