ram 1866mhz compatible to a ga-h61M-DS2 r3 motherboard?

[Julibear Galleto]

I have this motherboard GA-H61M-DS2 and a ram Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR3 1866MHz Memory, is the Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR3 1866MHz compatible with my notherboard (GA-H61M-DS2)?. As I look unto my motherboard specifications, it says "Support for DDR3 2200(OC)/1333/1066/800 MHz memory module"

Generally they should run, but they will be downgraded to 1333mhz which won't be a problem, however in your memory QVL only the Corsair models are said to support 8gb ram, but then again the memory QVL never lists every option possible, so they should actually run.

okay, the ram description says "Automatic Overclocking, No adjustments in BIOS needed", so is it going to overclock itself e.g. 1600mhz - 1866mhz or it just stick unto 1333mhz?

It will manually underclock to 1333mhz but that should not bother you. H61 chipset cant run more than 1333/1600 mhz normally.
