Corsair Vengeance DDR3 2x4GB 1600(CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9) and Asus P5Q3 Mobo

Hello everyone :) i am new on these forums and i just have a quick question

I bought the Asus P5Q3 mobo for my PC cause my Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3 was starting to die :P (yes i know we are in the year 2014 and i'm still running LGA775 :D but i got it super cheap)

I have the Q9550 quad CPU and GTX 570 GPU, now all i need is some DDR3 ram to go with it (currently have 4Gb DDR2)

my question is: Will the Corsair Vengeance DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz (CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9) Ram work With the Asus P5Q3 mobo ? I would really like to have 8 gigs of ram and also OC my CPU from 2.83 to 3.80.

What i wouldn't like is to buy new ram sticks and find out later that my PC doesn't post. So i was wondering if anyone here is running Corsairs CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 with the Asus P5Q3 mobo. And if this combo would work fine with Q9550 Cpu.

if you go to memory finder

and input your model, you get 1333 memory

ON asus website it says

https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P5Q3/#specifications

4 x DIMM, Max. 16 GB, DDR3 1800(O.C.)/1600/1333/1066 Non-ECC,Un-buffered Memory

*DDR3 1600MHz or above DIMMs work only on the Orange slots for one DIMM per channel.

Thanks for the info, i've decided to go with the Corsair XMS3 Kit 8GB DDR3-1333

[CMX8GX3M2A1333C9] and see if that works OK. If i have any problems i'll post here again :)

you will certainly notice the difference between this and your 4 gig ddr2.

BUt I don't think you should even bother with the 1600 as there wont be any difference
