I got a deal on some ram today:

4x4 Gb
Clock: 1600 MHz
Latency: CL 9-9-9-24
Voltage: 1.65 V

Same as this:

Need protip asap; go / nogo?

Only go up to 2133 and no more. The reason why I say this is the price goes up a lot and performance goes up little to nothing at all. But you are leaving a bit of performance on the table at 1333. 16000Mhz is fine for most people. So 1600Mhz 1.5v CL9 and call it a day is what I would do. if you want that last FPS and its worth it to you, go 2133Mhz CL9 1.5v.
:thup:
There will be no issues at 1.65v. :)
 
Thanks! Got a half price deal on new ram. The guy who was selling it had bought a 32 gb set in 8x4 gb but could only fit 4x4 gb on his mainboard :)
