The mobo spec - http://www.gigabyte.com.au/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3439#sp says

"4 x 1.5V DDR3 DIMM sockets supporting up to 16 GB of system memory
Dual channel memory architecture
Support for DDR3 2200/1600/1333/1066/800 MHz memory modules
Support for non-ECC memory modules
Support for Extreme Memory Profile (XMP) memory modules"

So 2133 should be OK. Just enable XMP in bios to get them up to speed.

It supports 4 x 4GB, not 2 x 8GB. If it did, the total supported memory would be 32GB, not 16GB.
