Quick question on H67 chipset regarding memory

[Geor9e]

I have Gigabyte GA-H67MA-UD2H-B3 (rev. 1.1), BIOS F8, Stock settings.

Of course H67 chipset can't run at 1600MHz and the manual indicates support for PC3-10600/1333MHz max....

But if I drop in a PC3-12800/1600MHz module; will it work ?

Question is in relation to this thread: http://forums.tweaktown.com/memory/4...ds-needed.html ***But this question specifically addresses Gigabyte's H67 capabilities / implementation / BIOS.

It should work at 1333mhz,I can't see why 1600mhz isn't supported? Unless its locked out in the bios,older h55 could support 1600mhz upwards

There's only support for 66.6, 100 and 133.3 ram mutiplers in my BIOS. Perhaps, if I had an IvyBridge CPU, 166.6 would be available?

Anyway; Dropped in 2 x DDR3 1600 MHz modules to compliment my existing DDR3 1333 MHz ram.
...All four modules working good @1333 MHz 9-9-9-24-2T.
