16gb ram 2x8gb

[mitch cumstein]

Im building a system with a H67N-USB3-B3 motherboard and I want to use 2x CORSAIR XMS3 8GB DIMM - 8GB PC3-10600 1333Mhz as the motherboard only has two slots.

I'm not really sure how to figure out whether ram is compatible with a hackintosh system.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks very much.

It depends on your CPU but why not 1600 MHz memory? If you can change in BIOS 1600 MHz will give a little performance boost. If the price is minimal between 1333 and 1600 MHz, why not 1600?

H67 ONLY supports 1333 RAM.

Ok, but I'm thinking is that if it is the same price why not get 1600 memory? If someone ever plan to upgrade the system can use the memory in a Ivy Bridge system and then run the memory in 1600 MHz instead of 1333.
