OCing RAM G.Skill RipjawsX 1600 Mhz to 2133 Mhz

[iamandroid]

Is it possible to overclock G.Skill RipjawsX from 1600 Mhz to 2133 Mhz?
Anyone knows how?

Motherboard: MSI A88X G-45

RAM: G.Skill RipjawsX 8GB (4GBx2), Dual Channel kit; 1600MHz; 9-9-9-24-2N; 1.50v

I don't believe its possible with that kit.

Try at 2133, 11-11-11-30, 1.6 and set the CPU/NB voltage to about 1.25 and give it a try

Hmm. How about G.Skill RipjawsX 1866 Mhz to 2133 Mhz?

I'm afraid I could damage my RAM. 🙁

Would be easier, I can't remember a set of GSkill that I've worked w/ that would OC up at least 1 step with little to no problems

How about OCing RAM G.Skill RipjawsX 1866 Mhz up to 2000 Mhz, you think that would be enough running games like Battlefield 4 on Medium settings pair with AMD A10-7850k without discrete GPU?

1866 itself should be plenty for the gaming, faster will help the iGPU in your 7850K

Many good deals right now, you can get DDR3-2133 for the same price as DDR3-1600:
