Will the Gigabyte 78LMT-usb3 support 1600 mhz ram?

I am getting the Gigabyte 78LMT-usb3 will 1x4gb DDR3 Stick of 1600mhz Cosair Vengence ram I need to know if it will be compatible.

Yes it will! but it would be downclocked to 1066 or 1333, any way it will work with your mobo

I've heard that it's possible to run RAM at speeds over 1333 in this board but it may downclock to 1333 as posted above.

Memory Standard
DDR3 1333+ (O.C.)/1066

You want to buy ram modules in pairs so that the memory runs in dual channel mode.
