Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz 8GB compatibility

[philmo]

I have a Gigabyte Z77-D3H MB with 8GB RAM - Corsair Vengeance Blue Low Profile 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel. I have bought some replacement memory at a great price but after checking the MB support page I am concerned the new memory is not listed and hence will not be compatible. The new memory is Corsair Vengeance 8GB sticks (I have 4 sticks so 32MB in total) 1600MHz DDR3 (CML8GX3M1A1600C10).

Any advice in terms of if this will work, if I will see much improvement in all around use and lastly if I might have to make any MB setting changes.

Thanks

That’s good to hear - would the MB recognise the extra memory automatically or would I normally have to change some settings ? Thanks.

Noted - and thanks.
