That board can support DDR3 2400 but you have to OC the memory to hit it and there is no 100% yes that it will hit that speed. I can say that from my experience that Corsair is a great brand so it most likely will work but again it depends on a lot of factors.

But per Asus that board should be able to hit 2400MHz DDR3 overclocked.

The mobo has no problem with 2400 sticks, what will probably hold you back is the CPU, specifically, it's MC (memory controller). The days of the mobo being the primary factor in determining what data rate of DRAM you can run went by the wayside with the demise of the 775 mobos where the MC was on the mobo, that's back what 6 years ago.

Your MB BIOS should have a feature called DOCP (similar to Intel's XMP), where you can enable to run the RAM at advertised speed. You may have to tweak some of the values in your BIOS like what jimmy suggested to hit 2400Mhz. DOCP will be a good starting point.

Good luck 😉 think you'll need it, many if not most of the 8350s can't run 2400 - at least at 2400 😉
