I have the current set up:

2x 4GB 1600 Corsair XMS3 in my i7 rig
1x 4GB 1600 Corsair XMS3 in my FM2+ rig

I'm looking to get a Kaveri for my FM2+ machine, and hear that 2133 ram is the way to get the most out of the APU.

If the ultra-low-profile sammy greens were still around it would be easy, but as the are not, I am limited to a single normal stick in my FM2+ MITX board (cpu cooler blocks one of the slots).

If I were to flog all my RAM, and get a 2x 8GB Teamgroup 2133 kit, and put 1 in each machine, would that be a good move for £60?

Will 1x 8GB TG 2133 with it's looser timings perform on par with my unaltered 2x 4GB 1600 in my main machine?

I'm really out of the loop with RAM, haha.
 
Hi, using TeamGroup 2133 8GB 2X4GB DC Kit x2=16gb in my new x79 build picked it up and runs at 2133/11.11.11.31.2t no problems at all.
