So im going to get new ram in the next couple days but still not sure what ram to get. I have an Asus Z87 Sabertooth and it only accepts 1866, 1666 and 1333 mhz ram only, if i get 2133 mhz ram will it work fine or not?

Thx :)

2133 will just be downclocked. It'll work but not at the rated speeds.

Work well or just work?
