I have an old Intel DH55HC motherboard that can run memory at 1066-1333 MHz speeds. The thing is that I can get 1600 MHz memory at the same same price than 1333 MHz memory is. Would there be any compatibility issues if I decide to go on and buy the faster memory? To be more specific, the modules that I want to buy are the GSkill Ares F3-1600C9D-8GAO. Thanks in advance :)
 
Solution
That RAM will work, but the RAM will run at 1333mhz instead of the 1600mhz. If the price is same just buy it, because if you get the new MB then you can use the RAM in the new MB too.
