I recently ordered a mobo that supported 1333 mhz,1600 mhz o.c and 1866 o.c I was wondering if 1600 mhz ram would work on it not overclocking and would it just downgrade to 1333 mhz?
 
Solution
Yes it will , you will have to set the XMP profile in the BIOS in an Intel build

If it's an AMD build you will have to go under the DRAM settings and set it under DOCP.
