1.Can an AMD FX 6300 supports a Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB (2x4) 2133Mhz
2. If it can, then can it supports 2x Corsair Vengeance Pro 8GB (2x4) 2133Mhz , with less words 16GB Ram, Quad Channel.

Looks as if the Mobo is only rated for 2000 Mhz on an overclock. So if you buy the 2133 ram, it'll downclock and you'll have to go into the bios and change it to 2000.

1) Yes the CPU IMC will determine how far the ram will actually go. 2133 at CL9 is a very good combination. Chances are higher speeds are possible since 2x4Gb sticks will be easier on the CPU IMC to deal with compared to 2x8GB or 4x4GB.

2) It will only run in Dual channel. Running 2 dimms will give the same or better performance that 4 dimms will give. With the exception that the CPU IMC will run 2 dimms at higher speeds. 

 

My motherboard is rated at 2000+mhz and I've taken it out to 2239Mhz without an issue. Chances are you can push it beyond what is supported.
