Would this ram work with my AMD board?

Jay85 · 26 Jun 2012 at 10:42

I'm running an overclocked Phenom II 955BE and MSI 890GXM-G65 board which has the NB also overclocked to 2600mhz but i'm wanting to upgrade my ram which is currently a generic crucial 1333mhz 8gb kit.

I'm bidding on these at the moment..

CMD4GX3M2A1600C9 Corsair Dominators but unsure if they will run on my system.

Anyone able to clarify if it will cause any problems?

Thanks.

Are all the voltages, timings etc compatible with my board? Thats my biggest concern.

ddr3 ram runs at a standard 1.5-1.65v
timings are set according to the ram, not the board (iirc)
so yea, 99% sure it should be fine
