Will G.SKILL Sniper Model F3-1866C9D-16GSR ram work with an Asrock 990fx extreme6 mobo . Couldnt find anything but I thought it should be backwards compatible ?"

My build is going to be Asrock 990FX Extreme6 Motherboard with FX 6350 cpu and R9 290 Gpu and the Sniper ram in a old zigmatek case and evga supernova 850 bronze power supply

So long as it's DDR3 memory and conforms to the slot on your motherboard, you're good to go. Just make sure you're on the latest BIOS update before you tinker with the ram kit to take it to DDDR3-1866MHz.

Mind sharing the rest of your build's specs?
