GA-X58A-UD3R memory question
« on: May 31, 2010, 12:52:47 pm »
I was wonder if this board is compatible with this RAM:

G.Skill F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ (3x2GB) DDR3

Cause I can't seem to locate whether it works with 1600MHz RAM

Thanks~

According to the blurb it should be ok:

Gigabyte lists these modules as compatible and they are 1600Mhz so I would think they are fine:

GSET16C1 2GB G.SKILL F3-12800CL9D-4GBNQ

And if you check G-skill' site they list the motherboard as compatible with your ram:

It doesn't really list the x58A, only the x58

And the Gigabyte sites list it 2200/1333/1066 for RAM MHz timings and not 1600.

These are all DDR3 12800 1600mhz RAM from G.Skill, I am sure that you´ll find compatible ones to your mobo from this list:

It means to achieve 1600MHz, you need to overclock...
