So I'm interested in this motherboard for my Athlon x6 phenom

confused about the ram to buy.

heres the motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131646

says i can have: DDR3 2000(O.C.) / 1333 / 1066 types of ram.

Now I'm confused about the O.C.: I know this means overclock but i'm wondering if this is 1333 overclocked with the motherboards built in turbo boost. or if i can natively place in ddr3 2000 ram?


I very much doubting that 1333 ram can be overclocked up to 2000 lol.

So i'm gonna assume that i can buy 2000 ram for this motherboard. And buy them at 4gb's each stick. so a total of 16 for the given x4 slots. please let me know if i am mistaken.


thanks in advance guys:)

there are 1600 ddr3 memorys in market, OCed they cant get to 2000, and is the max your mother would support.
