    Memory Standard

    What does it mean when it says the memory standard is 2133(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600(O.C.)/1333/1066/800? can i run 1600/1800/2133 on the motherboard with no problems or do i have to over clock to those speeds? or does it mean that i can over clock those speeds to even higher?

    The 800/1066/1333 means that is what the board will recognize when you first turn the machine on. In order to use the other speeds you will have to overclock the memory which just entails setting the speed timings and voltages in the bios.

    The motherboard supports them but you will have to buy the right RAM to OC some RAM fails to achieve the advised speeds.
