All ram works in all systems. 

 

Assuming your motherboard supports the default clock speed that that ram comes in at, it should be fine.

 

Example:

if your ram is 1600 and your motherboard only supports 1333, it will not boot

it will boot but it will set the ram to 1333mhz in most cases

I got some 1866 dimms and my friends crappy board wouldn't boot until we put some 1600 dimms into it. 

 

the 1866 sticks work flawlessly in my board but I sold them :/

I thought the motherboards downclock in order to boot???

Ye the motherboards I have had some experience will downclock if they cannot handle the ram dimm's default clock speed.
