You will need to buy a new motherboard which support 1600Mhz memory

when your mobo doesn't support 1600mhz ram....you cannot use these ram at 1600mhz

Sidharth: Is there any other options??can i downclock the ram....plz help

 

[siddharthmukul007]

most of the rams downclock themselves when you plug them in to a mobo that supports a slower clock.

but there is no benefit of down clocking, especially in india where ddr3 rams cost so much.

sidharth: my system not even starts up...no beep sound.....i need to find a way...any solution?

seems your mobo is having problem starting up with the 1600mhz ram.....just remove the ram and see if you are getting any ram beep s.
