Hi and Thanks for viewing.
I am building a new system and want to max out its efficiency and speed by putting be fastest and most ram on my Mobo it will handle. I am wanting a Asus Rampage II Extreme and would really like to put 12 Gb on the board filling a 6 memory slots with 2 Gigs each. How can I find out what is the fastest ram I can use. The board states this. for my motherboard
Memory
6 x DIMM, Max. 24 GB, DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600(O.C.)/1333/1066 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory
Triple channel memory architecture
* Supports Intel® Extreme Memory Profile (XMP)
**Due to Intel spec definition, DIMMs of DDR3-1333 or above are out of spec. Please refer to www.asus.com or user manual for the Memory QVL(Qualified Vendors List).
The ** scares me does this mean that any DDR3 that is over 1333 speed can not be used????? I want to go with 12 gigs of DD3 2000 (PC3 16000) is this possible and if not what do any of you recommend??????
THanks
