Question Can I use 2400Mhz RAM in this motherboard?

[Aakash294]

Hi,
I currently have 8 GB RAM in my computer and I was looking forward to upgrading it to 16GB. The problem is, I am unable to find the 2133Mhz version of the RAM that is currently being used in my PC. There are only 2400mhz versions of it available on online stores and shops. Also, my motherboard only supports ram upto DDR4 2133MHZ. So I just wanted to know if there's a way to use that 2400mhz and somehow bring it down to 2133 in BIOS or something so that I am able to use it with the current MOBO.


Here are the specs:

Processor: i5 6402p
Graphic Card: GTX 1660ti
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8 GB DDR4 2133Mhz
Motherboard: Gigabyte B150M D3H
PSU: Cooler Master 550w Bronze

All you need to do is install it and I think it should run at 2133 with the memory that's already in there.

Yes you can, your bios will automatically bring it down to 2133mhz, so don't worry.
