So there is that Kingstone Predator H2O memory which runs on 2133 MHz.. What the heck the motherboard to go with that?!

Nither MSi and Gigabyte fit it..

Some boards support up to 3000Mhz ram, fyi.

It depends upon the CPU and chipset you are interested in - which you didn't mention. There are lots of FM2 boards that handle 2133 easily. :)

A sieve may not hold water, but it will hold another sieve.

An example of that would be a MSI GD65 Gaming.

Majority of Sandy+ boards support 2400+

 

Just a heads up, i highly doubt you'll notice the difference between 2133 & 1600 & Timings are more important than speeds ;)
