What is the difference between ddr3l 1600 and ddr3l 1866?

The main difference between the two is that the 1866 RAM is theoretically faster than the 1600 RAM. There are some concessions that you will have to make for that speed, however. The other main difference is that the 1600 is available on more devices and is more compatible with other devices.

Can you put 1866 RAM 1600?

Yes the RAM will work but you’ll only be able to run it at 1600mhz. While running RAM at a lower speed will prolong its life, if the RAM is rated to run at 1866mhz then it’ll still last longer than you need it.

What is the difference between 1333mHz and 1600MHz RAM?

There is really no performance difference between running the RAM at 1333MHz compared to 1600MHz. The reason to buy 1600MHz is if you are heavily OCing. When you OC the CPU (unless you’ve got an unlocked multi like the 955) you also change the frequency the RAM.

Can I use 1866Mhz RAM on 1333?

It should work, yes. But, it will run at the lower 1333Mhz speed if your board does not support 1866Mhz.

What pc3l 14900?

PC3 means that the ram is DDR3, it is keyed to only fit in a ddr3 slot. The 14900 indicates that it is 1866 speed ram.

Can I use my 1333 Mhz RAM in 1600mhz slot?

Yes it will run just fine. The slot can handle 1600mhz stock, and more with OC.

Can a 1333mHz and 1600mHz RAM together?

You can, both sticks will run at 1333MHz. As long as your motherboard supports more than 8gb of RAM, which most of them do.

Can 1600mhz RAM work on 1066?

So the answer is that 1600 Mhz memory modules may not work in a slot that supports only upto 1066 Mhz.

Which is better DDR3 1600 or 1866 MHz RAM?

A DDR3 1866 Mhz RAM operates at an 1866 MHz clock, and an 1866 MHz clock cycle takes only 0.525ns to perform, meaning it is just slightly faster than 1600, and it handles most tasks with ease, including gaming. A device using this speed will use an 1866 MHz wave to transfer data 3,727 times per second. Is it good enough for gaming?

Which is better a 1600 or a 1866?

The 1866 is CL10 rather than 11, speed plus latency worth a small price premium over 1600 CL11. It won’t make you any better at a game.. I have heard of good stories about G.Skill honoring their warranty.

Is it worth to upgrade from 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz?

If you have 2 ram slots use 4GB (1600 mhz) one. If you have only 1 ram slot then use the 8 GB one. However, SSD’s (560 mbps max) and even better M.2 Nvme SSD drives (3500 mbps max) will boost speed even further and they will make you feel the speed. The extra/new ram will let your CPU breathe easy but you might not feel much difference.
