Can a Core i5 and GA-P55-UD3 setup use of 1600MHz RAM without overclocking?

*still trying to learn about FSB and related issues*

Thanks for your help!
 
Solution
FSB is out with the i5/i7 based cpus same as AMD K8's etc

1333 i believe is default and most cost effective but 1600 is possible but with very little gain - dont bother spending the extra if your not overclocking etc

other then that it will work fine with 1600
