Aight so i just picked up an intel dx38bt at microcenter a few days ago (it was mis-marked at $100 ) and of course the x38 chipset uses ddr3 wich i dont have atm. So my question isss... my motherboard only supports 1333MHz ddr3. I was searching for the cheapest possible ddr3 cuz im basically broke, and tiger direct had 2x 1 gig OCZ sticks 1333Mhz for 30 after rebate but they just took it off there site today. Now all they have is some off brand 2x 1gig stick set for less but its 1600MHz. Ya i no i drag on but....ya my question is will the 1600MHz ram drop down to 1333 on my mobo because i dont want to risk frying my ram or my mobo, thanks
