Hey,
I bought the OCZ Special OPS 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C8 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit today but was wondering about its compatibility with certain mobos.
I know that ddr3 ram has to go with a drr3 mobo.
But the supported ram speed of many mobos is PC3-10600, PC3-8500 whilst the ram I bought is PC3-12800.
Will using a mobo that doesn't support PC3-12800 hinder speeds?
I've noticed that none of the motherboards I've looked at support this.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks.
