Downgradable?

I haven't build a PC for awhile, and just have a question on memory. Can a DDR3 10666/12800 use on a DDR3 10600 MB?

It should work fine. What motherboard do you have?

Memory is rated up to a certain speed. Meaning, anything lower would be fine.

Thanks for the reply. Still trying to find a CPU and motherboard. I just have this question so I can look at memorys more instead of pinpoint to on speed.
